Different packets order between Wireshark and application

Hi, I have simple Linux C application that receives an UDP multicast flow produced by another application running on the seme host (same IP/port). The UDP data has a sequence number in order to detect gaps at application level. What is happening is that sometimes the receiver application detects a gap in the UDP packets received but they result ordered in Wireshark. My question is, is it possible to have different order between the capture and the received data?

Thanks
