Yes you can sort the list, but it requires editing the registry. In the case of .jpg files, look below. Notice the last line "MRUList". This controls the order of the options in your context menu. This example will show you 4 choices: Paint, Irfanview, Windows Photo Viewer, and Firefox, but the order they will show up in the context menu is:

Firefox

Windows Photo Viewer

Irfanview

Paint

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.jpg\OpenWithList]

"a"="mspaint.exe"

"b"="i_view32.exe"

"c"="PhotoViewer.dll"

"d"="firefox.exe"

"MRUList"="dcba"

All you have to do is arrange the letters in MRUList according to your preferences.
