No, normal Dragoons can use the fire dive as well, only the more powerful ones though, including the Azure Dragoon, who can use it by default.
As quoted in the quest dialogue, it seems to imply that the dragonfire dive and the drachen mail are Azure Dragoon exclusives. "An ability only the Azure Dragoon..." Jumps and such are a-go but things like multiple air-combat feats are probably not.
I'll post this thread that is more Dragoon specific. http://ffxiv-roleplayers.com/showthread.php?tid=6357
In regards to other classes, I personally never saw anything Lore-breaking about being Black Mages ICly. However they have a community stigma based on the very nature of the kind of magic they use and where they get their power from.
