It is possible, yes.
You have 2 TCP connections, the 2 requests are sent one per
connection, and on the server it may happen that the second connection
is processed before the first.

There are 2 ways:
1) Use directly connections (pseudo code):
Promise<Connection> p = ...;
httpClient.getDestination(...).newConnection(p);
Request r = client.newRequest(...);
p.get().send(r, new BufferingResponseListener...)
2) Configure HttpClient with setMaxConnectionsPerDestination(1).

If you don't want to use either solution above, then yes you need to
do it at the application level with queueing, because it is your
application that requires ordering and HttpClient cannot know what
ordering you want.
In some cases having the second request arriving before the first is
an important feature - not for your case though.
