I dunno, but pyr- would have properly come from the Greek, so maybe, if they both meant fire, oyr- would have had a slightly foreign, classical sound to them- kinda like the difference in feel between a Latinate vs anglo-saxon root word for us.

Also, I didn't think Latin actually had a word "pyro." They had "pyra", which more properly means funeral pyre or bonfire.So there's that.
