I think anything is possible, although it is very debated how often repressed memories actually occur. I know how frustrating it is to be unsure if you remember various traumatic things. Are you in therapy at all? A therapist might be able to help you get to the bottom of why you are feeling this way. It could be an actual memory that's been repressed, or it could be a more abstract thing related to something else that's happened but you didn't connect the two together. Brains are very weird things; they can do all sorts of stuff, and the same symptom is not the same from person to person. Do be careful about trying to force memories; as that can lead to a lot of confusion about what's real. But perhaps you could think about what you do know about these memories, how they affect you now, and see if anything naturally comes up? Sorry if this isn't very clear. My main point is, yes it's technically possible. How often it happens is hard to tell, and it could be something not related to a direct memory but more of a mixture of multiple feelings and memories. You may never know for sure, which I know is not easy to accept, but you may discover more about it if you try and let your mind just bring to you whatever is behind these feelings/memories rather than forcing it and work with a therapist to help do this.
