Not really, the thrust loads on the piston rings and bearings gets reversed but since they ate supposed to be riding on an oil film and the load is significantly less than acceleration, Makes 0 difference to the valve-train, I'd have to say no you are not damaging anything, as long as you don't shock it by dropping the clutch at low gear making your engine zing from idle to near redline in .5 seconds, that I could totally see destroying something.after the clutch has engaged is engine breaking that bad? I know you wouldn't want to trash the clutch but I engine break quite a bit.
