No - not in the same flue - very bad idea and not permitted in most codes.
Ramps are max 1:12 and max 30" rise between landings. Clear width is 32" - don't forget the door and handle must be outside the 32" width.

I have my woodstove connected into the same flue, however I only use my woodburner as an emergency backup when the regular furnace goes out
