Unfortunately there is no option to 'unsort' the package explorer view, except the one that shows public members first (Window -> Preferences -> Java -> Appearance -> Members Sort Order). I also think that this setting will be implemented soon since the following bugs are really old an have been resolved as WONTFIX.

Bug 51611 - No option to not sort members in package explorer
Bug 32930 - Unify Member Sorting [render] [browsing] [outliner] [package explorer]

As an alternative you can use the outline or members view. There you can sort alphabetically or by declaration order using the toolbar button of the view.

I personally like the outline view more than the package explorer for member overview since I don't like it so much when the package explorer gets messed up with too much information ...
