sure:
/jcr:root/foo/bar/* order by @prop
but depending on the number of nodes, manually ordering them might be more
efficient than executing a query.
I thought the OP was asking if there is any API that allows:
Node.getNodes(<some_sort_criteria>)
I think the spec covers this in the Ch.4.4: Orderable Child Nodes.
