Is the sentence "That guy will make fall in love all those girls" correct, like "all those girls will fall in love with that guy", can I rewrite it like above?
Thanks for the attention!

We would say:
That guy will make all those girls fall in love with him.
If we leave out "with him", he could simply be a sort of love deity who makes people fall in love with each other.
With respect to "make"; notice how "him" comes between "make" and the complement "shake in his boots":
The approaching tiger made him shake in his boots.
We do not say "The approaching tiger made shake in his boots him".
The sentence is understandable but it is rather bad English. If I were given it to edit, I would change it to "That guy would make all those girls fall in love", or I would prefer your second version.
