the database?

If you're talking about the physical location of the row in the
table/file, you may be able to p an index or similar, and this would
be subject to change. But nothing through any API.

The right way to do it is assign your own "physical id", and MySQL gives
you autoincrement fields to make it trivially simple to do so.
