I am assuming you are talking about doing this in a chart where Fiscal Mo/Yr is a dimension? Try to replace your dimension like this

Date#([Fiscal Mo/Yr], 'M-YYYY')

and then sort numerically...

Alternatively, you can do this in the script

Date#([Fiscal Mo/Yr], 'M-YYYY') as [Fiscal Mo/Yr]

and then use  [Fiscal Mo/Yr] as dimension and sort numerically.
