This might be misconstrued as a metaphysical question whereas it is better approached through semantics and logic.

By definition, the state of realness is in direct opposition to the state of fakeness. Logically, one thing cannot wholly occupy two directly opposite states at the same time, much as one object cannot occupy two wholly distinct places at one time. Semantically, in order to 'stay' in a state it is necessary to be in that state and not leave it. One cannot stay in a state one is not already in. Therefore it is a logical and semantic impossibility to 'stay' real while 'being' fake.

Take some acid:

Of all the benefits of the drug experience, this is perhaps the greatest and the most long-lasting. The author, a college professor, remembers during his third LSD experience staring at the physician who had administered the drug with the awed and liberating awareness that the man was no more a doctor than he himself was a professor. Both the "professor" and the "doctor," although duly certificated by the proper authorities, were, it now appeared, manifestly frauds. What's more, the discovery proved liberating and refreshing in the extreme. Two game-players, one hiding behind the doctor role, the other playing at being a professor, had come out from their costumes, abandoned the game, and, thanks to LSD, now sat confronting each other in a condition of headlong and naked reality. The feeling of lightness and release was incredible.
