Is there a chance that pic related, who famously sat in total silence during the Apollo 1 fire which claimed his life, simply turned his mic off to spare the sounds of his screams?

Very yes.
Most of the burns occurred after they were already dead. Carbon monoxide filled the capsule, it was determined that 4 seconds after the fire started the levels would have already been lethal. The fire did destroy their oxigen supply exposing them to the monoxide. All three died of cardiac arrest following carbon monoxide poisoning. It isn't saying much but at least they didn't slowly burn to death unlike the soviet cosmonaut Bondarenko. Who in a similar pure oxygen environment suffered 100% third degree burns on his body and died 16 hours later from the shock. The doctors said that he was so badly burnt that they couldn't find a vein to inject him with painkillers.

If it was 100% 3rd degree burns, he wouldn't need pain killers?

Burns go up to fifth degree and not all your nerves are in your skin.
