I doubt whether this is possible.

Is it possible for Willy to jump over two fire blocks? I'm unable to
answer this myself, because I don't know if it's impossible or it's
just that I'm a bad player.

It is not possible, except in Jet Set Willy II.

However, there are a couple of ways to simulate being able to jump
over a Fire-cell at head-height:

1. Use an invisible ramp that the player has to stand at the bottom
of:

..../*BBBBBB....

(e.g. Jet Set Willy: The Lord of the Rings: "The Road to Isengard")

2. Use a stationary guardian, as I did in Party Willy's "Guarden".
