Sorry, bottom and top of what? Are you talking about a surface pattern for your walls or are you talking about a filled region to be drawn in as detail? You can create a compound wall that splits the wall material at a specified height if this is what your after. Please clarify before i go into further detail.

Yes this is exactly what I am talking about. I would like to make the surface model pattern two different materials. Please let me know how to do this

As Mr. Spot mentioned, it sounds like you want the 'SPLIT WALL' command under the tools menu. This will allow you to split a wall either horizontally or vertically. You can then reselect one of the sections to be a different wall assembly. This will keep your details of your wall section accurate vs. splitting the face or using the 'paint' routine.

I already have the wall around my first floor. and would like to make a combo brick veneer wall type and be able to replace the existing wall with this combo wall.

While in a 3d view of the wall you want to be split horizontally, select "SPLIT WALLS AND LINES" in the tools menu pull down. Position the cursor along either of the vertical sides of the wall and you will see a ghosted horizontal reference line, select the location you want the wall to be split (its horizontal position can be adjusted later in the properties dialoge or manually). Now you can select either the top or bottom wall and change its wall type either in the TYPE SELECTOR or PROPERTIES DIALOGUE BOX. You can also cheat and just PAINT the surface once split if you're only looking for a graphic presentation and not two distinct wall assemblies.

I would create a new wall type using the one currently in use. If you check out revit help on vertical compound walls i pretty sure it explains this process Investigate the split region command. NOTE: in order to access these tools you need to turn on the preview and switch to the section preview rather than the floor plan. HTH.
