I really don't know that for sure.
My best (somewhat) educated guess is that you don't need the actual VPP claim number until you are ready to actually buy/take delivery of the vehicle; not when you order it. The numbers expire 90 days from the date they are issued and orders can certainly take longer than that so using the number when you take delivery is what makes the most sense.
I would make sure, however, that the dealer you are ordering from agrees (hopefully in writing) that he will sell the car under the VPP program when the vehicle does arrive...in other words, make sure you get your deposit back if the dealer changes his mind.
