Tomato wilt was found to be killed in a compost pile after 21 days at a minimum temperature of 149 degrees. That is a lot of days to be able to keep a compost pile that hot, but it can be done. Not sure it is worth the risk.

There are lots of things that can cause "wilt" in tomatoes, but as long as the soil is not being used for related plants, like peppers, etc. I would think using it for the lawn would be fine.
