Not exactly. This is a case of an "antonym of a synonym" that is not close enough, although you will see it appear in a thesaurus.
The word increase means to become larger in value, size, amount, or use. It can be an antonym of the words "diminish" and "decline" which are synonyms for recede in some cases.
The word recede has a positional connotation, meaning to retreat, move back or move away. More apt antonyms (opposites) would be to advance (move forward) or spread.
