Can the NeverWet superhydrophobic spray be applied to wood to seal in moisture and make it fire proof as a result of the Leidenfrost effect?

Nope, superhydrophobic doesn't mean air-tight, which means that water vapor can escape and will have its limits as an insulating layer. However, NeverWet is silicon-based and might confer some fire-resistance (though not much with something so thin).
