a lifeform exsists on a planet with a much different atmosphere than this one, and is adapted to live in THAT particular environment.
Earth has plenty of lifeforms on it already that would die if ever exposed to our general atmosphere. We've developed creatures that never see the light of day, living off of the heat and other chemicals generated from lava vents on the ocean bottoms.
Highly toxic places to most earth species, such as nuclear reactor cores, boiling hot sulphur springs, etc, have bacterium that survive there.
Seems pretty plausible to me that if there is energy and a rudimentary supply of complex chemicals around, there can be life.
