Should i avoid smoking the night before a wisdom tooth surgery?

Yes: Not only should you avoid smoking the night before your surgery and for days after the procedure, consider this an opportunity to stop smoking altogether. Good luck with both.

Yes: Actually you should avoid smoking forever. Smoking will lower your immune response and make it harder for the extraction site to heal i'm not going to mention what this is doing to the rest of your body.
