We introduce and study a notion of Serre liftable modules; these are modules that are liftable to modules of the maximal possible dimension over a regular local ring. We establish new cases of Serre's positivity conjecture over ramified regular local rings by proving it for Serre liftable modules. Furthermore, we show that the length of a nonzero Serre liftable module is bounded below by the Hilbert-Samuel multiplicity of the local ring. This establishes special cases of the Length Conjecture of Iyengar-Ma-Walker.
