In Legacy/Vintage where the order of cards in the graveyard is fixed/relevant, if I play a card like Earthquake or Hurricane that sends some of my own creatures to the graveyard (as well as the spell itself), do the spell and creatures go the graveyard at the same time (i.e. can I choose to put the sorcery card in my graveyard last so I can cast it again on my following turn if I have Bosium Strip in play)?

No. In the case of damage-dealing and toughness-reducing sweepers, the spell will be put into the graveyard before the creatures as part of its resolution. Following the resolution of the spell, state-based actions will be checked and creatures with lethal damage/0 toughness will die.
On the other hand, destroying sweepers like Wrath of God will put the creatures into the graveyard before the spell itself.
And, when multiple cards are put into your graveyard simultaneously, you choose the order that they end up in. This includes something like discarding your hand or milling X where X > 1.
