    Start with paragraph numbering attached to styles.

    How to create numbered headings or outline numbering in Ribbon Versions of Word by Shauna Kelly

    If those are headings (perhaps  level 9 and not shown in TOC), you can use the Cross-Reference feature to refer (and hyperlink) to the paragraph number.

    You can sort your reference list by first and last name. That may reorder your paragraphs.

    Update the cross reference fields in your body to reflect the new numbers. (Perhaps Ctrl+A followed by F9).

    This is intermediate-level use of Word, not for beginners.

    For information on creating a numbered reference list, see http://web.archive.org/web/20150628084758/http://daiya.mvps.org/biblio.htm#AlphaEndnotes

    This is an old article, but the bottom line is that you just create your reference list in alphabetical order, adding auto numbering to the style used. In the text, use cross-references to the paragraph numbers of the listed references. As you add references to the list, the numbering of the reference list will update automatically, but you will need to use F9 to update the cross-references.

    Of course you can! You create your numbered reference list, add a (numbered) paragraph, and paste in your reference. Sort your list in alphabetical order, then insert cross-references in the text to the paragraph number(s) of the relevant reference(s) in the list.

    ty for answer how do i do that? can you show at least in few pictures?

    The article referenced in my first reply does provide more detail.
