Well, if the person is wrapped tightly I expect the answer is "no", but could an aluminized loose "cloak" hide a person from thermal imaging cameras by reflecting the cold surroundings? Or, if the blanket is used as a hide (impromptu tent) with a person inside, would that work?

Aluminum reflects infrared, so it is something like wrapping yourself in a mirror. The camera wouldn't see you, but it would see something.

One the other hand, you are an infrared light bulb. So not seeing you is very helpful.
