Yes, it is possible but not very intuitive :)

Select the block to be sorted, click on Data, Sort, click on the Options tab
and uncheck the "Range contains column labels" option, click on the last
radio button " Left to right (sort columns)".
Click on the Sort Criteria tab, make sure that Row 1 is showing the Sort by
box and press OK.

Worked for me :)
