No, falling up the stairs is a common grammatical error. The proper expression is tripping up the stairs. You cannon fall up because according to physics:

1. Energy = potential energy + kinetic energy but energy is always the same and constant

2. When you fall kinetic energy increases and so in order for energy to remain the same potential energy must decrese.

3. Potential energy is equal to the mass, gravity, and height. Since mass and gravity are not changing but potential energy is the height then MUST decrease.
