Is it possible? Yes, but is that what you're seeing? Probably not. In my opinion, that is probably retrograde alopecia.

I lose a patch of hear every day, at least that's what my wife says.  LOL.

Could be just a bad haircut.  If look at the entire area, I would point out similar spots - not just the one you are concerned about.  Areata? Maybe.  Let your hair grow.  If there is a patch, it will become very apparent and distinct. 

Have you ever had patches before? The hair can return...and the patch can reappear elsewhere.  

Right now it is doubtful...Perhaps you need to change barbers.

It looks rather normal to me. A lot of people's hair is thinner above the ears than it is elsewhere.
