Passing sort order as a parameter

Referring to the sample SQL statement below. I'm able to pass parameter values to the placeholder '?' in the statement. However I'm wondering whether it is possible to pass in the sort order in the same way?

So instead of this:

//Create SQL query
var getAccountsTransactionsStatement = WL.Server.createSQLStatement(
  "SELECT transactionId, fromAccount, toAccount, transactionDate, transactionAmount, transactionType " +
  "FROM accounttransactions " +
  "WHERE accounttransactions.fromAccount = ? OR accounttransactions.toAccount = ? " +
  "ORDER BY transactionDate DESC " +
  "LIMIT 20;"
);

Can I have this:

//Create SQL query
var getAccountsTransactionsStatement = WL.Server.createSQLStatement(
  "SELECT transactionId, fromAccount, toAccount, transactionDate, transactionAmount, transactionType " +
  "FROM accounttransactions " +
  "WHERE accounttransactions.fromAccount = ? OR accounttransactions.toAccount = ? " +
  "ORDER BY ? DESC " +
  "LIMIT 20;"
);

And to invoke it:

//Invoke prepared SQL query and return invocation result
function getAccountTransactions1(accountId){
  return WL.Server.invokeSQLStatement({
    preparedStatement : getAccountsTransactionsStatement,
    parameters : [accountId, accountId, transactionDate]
  });
}
