No. Sorting a file will not turn a single line in one file into seven lines in another file.

And, neither cat nor grep will split or combine lines. So..., the format of Junaid Subhani's two files (/opt/jbin/server.log.tmp and /opt/jbin/log/server.log.2015-05-02-18) is different; and cat and grep are not going to reformat those files to Junaid Subhani's unspecified desired file format.
