Hi,

You can clearly do what you want. In fact you dont need an arduino or any mcu.

ESP8266 is an programmable Wifi module. You can upload your sketch with Arduino IDE or LUA.

You can switch your relay by the help of a tansistor.

so, it mean i have to upload my Arduino sketch to wifi module using Arduino ide. am i going right??
 

Yes you're right.

You need :

1) USB to UART Converter(Must be 3.3v). This can be FT232RL or CP2102 Modules.
2) https://github.com/esp8266/Arduino
In this site you can see how you will upload your sketch to your ESP8266 Module.
