I believe the answer is:

HANGER

Steal my prefix and fire shall arise.

Remove ('steal') the prefix 'H' and ANGER arises (a feeling associated with the intensity of a raging fire).

Steal my suffix and someone dies.

Remove the suffix 'ER' and someone might HANG (i.e die at the end of a rope).

Steal my infix and differ from guys.

Remove the infix 'ANG' and we have HER - a female pronoun (rather than a male one for guys).

Steal my whole and go reorganize.

If the HANGERs in my wardrobe are stolen, I will need to find a way to reorganise my clean clothes!
