Hi Brent, Let me start by saying that many of us believe that the wonderful movements of the earth, causing apparent movement of the sun in the sky is the true time, not that sterile, artificial time invented by politicians and overcontrolling scientists.
But, to answer your important question, if your only measurements are the altitude and azimuth of the apparent sun's position, then No, the sun's position is not unique. You might look at a chart of declination to see that different days pass through the same numbers. Keep thinking though, I, for one believe there is much still to be discovered and enjoyed in this area. Best Wishes!
