As javaliga has stated, that is not possible. The way that fall detections works, the first call is to 9-1-1, and when that call is completed, it will contact your emergency contacts.
While I don't believe they would change it, you can provide feedback to Apple to explain you would like to be able to just notify emergency contacts before 9-1-1. Many others have asked this same question. Feedback - Apple Watch - Apple

Thanks, ChrisJ4203. I have now submitted feedback to Apple to make this feature (turning off 911) an option.
