Are these same motion ?
tuck up my sleevesroll up my sleeves
Usually you would say 'Roll up my sleeves' which is the act of folding them over multiple times. Tucking is a little different. You could 'Tuck in your sleeves' which involves concealing their edge under another piece of clothing, much like you would tuck in a shirt.
