Yes, you can freely switch items in the build-queue.

To give you an example: in your case, add the unit to the queue, then click on the icon of the unit within the queue and drag it in front of the icon of the building you're constructing. Your city will now train the unit first. Once that is done, it will continue to construct the building.

Note that you won't transfer any production spent toward whatever's currently topmost in your queue over to the new item (but on the other hand, you won't lose that progress either, unless you cancel it entirely.)  In other words, you can't do the Granary --> Barracks trick (for any Civ1 players out there.)

That was such a good trick. :)
