Yes, you can save startup info into the system preferences or your
application's preferences.

However, for what you are trying to do, I would suggest you take a look at
the HotSync completed notification (using the Notification Manager on newer
devices) or at the HotSync completed launch code (on older devices).  These
notifications are sent out after a HotSync is completed and allow you app to
do any post-sync cleanup/sorting it may need to do.  If you handle the
sorting in this way, you won't have to check if there has been a hotsync
since the app launch every time the app starts up.
