Sure. Assuming the 1000 shares are in the same brokerage account as the bought and sold 100 shares, all you have to do upon selling, before you press the sell button, there should be something that notifies you which lots to sell. You go there and find the place where it says "last in first out" and that's what you use. (i.e. NOT the "first in first-first out" button.) There might also be a button that allows for "high cost shares first" or "low cost shares first", and that's another choice that might work for you depending on the costs of the 1000 vs the 100 shares.
