Is it possible to edit or change the entry id numbers so they are able to be sortable much like custom fields in weblogs?

No, not really. You’d have to manipulate the db directly. I strongly advise against it.

If you want entries to be sortable in this way you might want to add a custom field for sorting your entries. A “Sorting Number” field for example. Or if you are an efficiency nut (like me) you can sort by the url_title, and manipulate the url_titles so they would be in the order you desire (and exclude custom fields when possible).
