Would this solve the lightning problem?
Power surge: Probably yes. Parts inside the surge protector can sacrifice themselves depending on the severity. George K. can explain it better.
Hit by lightning: Probably not. Lightning is highly destructive and unpredictable. It can take multiple paths (outdoor lights, gutters, roof vents, cable wiring, gas/water lines) and go around it.
