Yes it is:
$ dpkg --compare-versions 5.0-20120524-1ubuntu5 lt 5.0-git20120522-1ubuntu3 && echo yes || echo no
yes

In future, I suggest you use ~git instead of -git. ~ is magic, and sorts
before nothing. so 1.0~git1 < 1.0.
For now how about using 5.0-release~beta+20120524-0ubuntu1
Then once it's released, you can go to 5.0-release-0ubuntu1
And after 5.0, you can use a saner 5.1~gitXX-0ubuntu1 -> 5.1-0ubuntu1
scheme.
