Can you really get taller by stretching?

No not really.

No exercises or stretching techniques can make you taller that the height you are.

This is sometimes confused with stretching at the end of the day. If you spend the day on your feet, gravity will naturally compress the fibers in your body and you may find yourself shorter by the evening. This is always temporary and by sleeping horizontally you will return to your normal height.
