Question intentionally dropped foul tip

Does intentionally dropping a foul tip fall under the same rule as intentionally dropping a fly ball? The reason I ask. Say you have a great strike out pitcher with a runner on base. A foul tip occurs with the runner stealing on the foul tip. The catcher sees she cannot throw out the runner for some reason so intentionally drops the foul tip to make it a foul ball, thus forcing the runner back. Thanks for your replies, Dave
