When we mean ‘falling’ we talk of being captured in a gravitational well and being forced to move around it if the body is rotating. And you can fall in accordance as long as you share a barycenter. So yes, we are technically falling in the Local Group's gravitational well.

>If everything is falling does the expansion of space mean there’s always room for everything to continuously fall?

Eh..... roughly yes.
