That is the implication but it isn't meant literally.
'What are you on?' in that context means more like 'Are you joking / are you kidding / are you crazy?'.

Yes but usually me and my friends as a joke if we are acting weird, so in that sense it could also be used for what's up [what is wrong]. There is also a few other things that statement could mean though
