Is it possible to log requests in the apache when they arrive not when they have been processed?

We have a pretty big web based application and the way it's currently logged is sometimes confusing to read, because each request with it's subrequests is logged "upside down", because apache logs the request after it has been processed, so the initial request is the last entry for this "query".

We're wondering if there is a chance to log on arrival?!
