It's not possible to do this with Word's XE and Index fields, no.

You need to use the Table of Contents generator for that.

Assign different styles to the Subject and Paragraph/Figure/Table No.

Generate a Table of Contents, convert the result to ordinary text (Unlink
the field) then convert it to a table and sort by Subject.
