Yes there is, if you mean the order they display in. 

Go to family types, use the light blue arrows to arange to your likeing, or sort alfabaticly.

It will be headache if I have more than 50 parameter and 50 families to be move using that way. Is there any other way to do batch parameter move?

Some additions to @benschilders answer.

 

Typically when you once loaded in a family with a certain parameter order, Revit tends to remember that. So when you change the order in the family editor and reload it back in the project, you have a good chance it will not change the order in the project.

You might need to start with a clean project for this to happen. It also might mean you need to rebuild your project templates (depending what you have loaded in there).

 

I have not checked if this behaviour has changed in recent versions of Revit.

Please mention Revit version, especially when uploading Revit files.

I think those two are the only batch sorting options.

Maybe somebody else knows antother way, myself i am happy that we even get the option to 
sort the parameters order :leicht_lächelndes_Gesicht: (although i understand that sorting 50 parameters is not fun...)

If you look at my previous post, you might conclude from this that you do not need it to change for families.

Once a family has been loaded into the project it keeps that order.

 

Otherwise you might be able to do something with Dynamo.

@L.Maas  i think he could try to save the family as another version like ad v2.0 in the name or something.
And then load the family into the project, this way Revit sees it as a new family. 

Then use select all instances to replace the original family with the new V2.0 one.

I think this might work.

understand that. For my case, I have more than 1 family in the project and I need to rearrange all the family parameter 1 by 1 right? and yes if I loaded it back to the family, I can see the parameter is moved already.

I am not familiar with Dynamo but still looking for it if there a way using Dynamo.

Thank you

yeah, that's the only way to batch sorting. If like you said, save the family to another version, still I have a ton of family to do 1 by 1. haha.
otherwise, create new parameter with a number, so that the order will be followed what I want haha.
