git log has a reverse option to reverse the order of commits displayed. You can also provide a commit reference like HEAD~10 to get the 10th ancestor from the head commit.

Does Github have a way to specify URL parameters to achieve something similar?

Not on that page, no, but you could easily fetch this information via the GraphQL API.
