Although I wouldnt recomend this as you will need to keep updating your custom list.

Creat a custom list and apply it to your excel sheets.

Select your list to sort and in the data sort section of excel you will have an option for custom sort.  select that and then in the drop down at the end you will have the option of setting a custom list.

Add your entries in and then apply them like i've done in my example.  Like I say this is not a great way to do this as there is a maintenance overhead but will meet your requirement.
