Of course you can, it doesnt matter where the "impact" came from, weather it is a car, or stairs or someones fist, it can still break or fracture your ribs. If someone is hitting you, there is no excuse for it, and I advise you to seek professional help such as the police or a counselor or whatever, but you should not just leave yourself in a situation where someone is hitting you...its never acceptable.
