Its certainly possible, if the fluid is low, dirty, filter filled up with gunk it can do stuff like this. have you checked the fluid level? Running and parked on a level surface? But it also maybe an unhappy transmission too.

i have checked the fluid it is at the proper level she only slips and shifts hard once the trans warms up but it always has a delay i got this truck off a friend the tranny has 200,000 on it but it has been serviced maybe once and this truck just started doing this i do not beat on the truck and i baby it i never take it off road and i absolutly love my truck i was told to flush it and run some transfix from lucas in it as well for 3 days then flush it again and also put a magnet on the oil pan so it collects metal shavings better this truck was shifting fine up until the end of september
