sorting on all columns in a matrix

Based on other threads, I don't think I can do what I want, but am looking to verify.  I have the following columns in a matrix.

As you can see, only the far right Total has the option to sort.  I would like users to be able to sort on all the columns, ie have the Qtr 4 data be sorted high to low, instead of the total.  When I click on the three dots and go to sort by, I see the following.

Rep and Customer are my rows.  NSB Splits is my values.  Time is my columns.  I'd like to be able to select any of the time columns and sort high to low.  Is this possible?
