Is it possible to burn fat before it gets stored in the body?

Just Jess asked:

I dont know if i worded the question correctly.

Lets say I eat a slice of pizza and then a half hour later I swim laps. Is it possible to burn off the fat/calories that I ate in the pizza before they have time to get processed through the body? Or is the fat that is burned during exercise stored fat?

It would make sense to me that after burning ‘new fat’ (the fat from the slice of pizza) that after that new fat is burned, THEN stored fat begins being burned off. Is that how it works?
