You can only do this if you have the signing keys. If the store wants to do this for users (say, if the developer is incapacitated somehow) they can't.
Edit: I'm actually not 100% sure if the signing keys are required for changing just the version number, but I assume so
That sounds about right for Google play. That said, the point still stands. If Google wanted to implement such a feature, it could probably be done by onky patching things on their store backend. I'm sure it wouldn't be a trivial change, but still it wouldn't need to touch the OS itself. Probably. As far as the phone is concerned, it would still be disallowing rollbacks as usual.
