Should I train fasted to burn fat?

Only for specific, low-intensity sessions (Zone 1/2) under 90 minutes. Never do high-intensity intervals fasted. You need glycogen to produce high power. Training hard while fasted increases cortisol (stress hormone) and forces muscle catabolism. Fuel the work required.
