Hey, anything is possible!
But like diagnostician doctors trying to come up with a cause for the
symptoms, we theory analysts try to find the most direct chord for
the associated pitches. When you hear hoofbeats, think horses, not
zebras.
The voicing IS a rather run-of-the mill G7 altered (or Db7 lydian
dominant, same chord with a different bass), the question is: was the
chord symbol a tone too high, or was the voicing a tone too low, or
(as I suspect now) is everything correct and it was just anticipated
(or wrongly placed)? Or were there some wrong notes attributed? A
tough call without the amount of info that Carl has...

That's a big reason I later followed with an example of the first 8 bars
- to show in context where the chord lies, and to (I hope) allow for
analysis beyond my simple skills.
