What you're saying is that different queues bound under the same address could end up with message references in different orders after a cancel condition. That's correct, but I don't see what relation it has to paging. Paging occurs at the address level - *before* the message is routed. Paging is done at the message and address level, not the queue and message reference level. Once a message has been routed there's no paging involved.
