It's certainly possible. Just like the vaccines, the level of protection from previous infection varies, but it definitely doesn't hurt. Are you saying you actually had a confirmed case before, or are you wondering if you had it and didn't know it?
Beyond that, viruses are just weird, so it's possible your immune system could have fought it off even without previous infection.
