If your mattress is soft and not well supported it can lead to back ache. Soft mattresses do that for me quite a lot.
I have slept on the floor quite a few times in the past to avoid this.
I'd say give it a try and see if it works, you are not risking any damage by doing so. If it does stop the back aches then you will know that you need a firm matress with solid support.
One of the pieces of advice my father gave me was to buy a firm mattress and spend as much as I could afford on it as I was going to spend a third of my time lying on it for many years.
