Yes you can to it, in thingsboard client side api you can define your data timestamp when you are posting it (https://thingsboard.io/docs/reference/http-api/#telemetry-upload-api):

Just set your payload with timetamp with this format:

{"ts":1451649600512, "values":{"key1":"value1", "key2":"value2"}}

Where "ts" is your timestamp in miliseconds.
