Can I query and sort by order?

Yes. Use it like:

    'depth'      => 1,
    'number'     => 100,
    'parent'     => 0,
    'orderby'    => 'order', // <--- Looky looky!
    'order'      => 'ASC',
    'hide_empty' => false,

    // Try the "wp-term-meta" plugin!
    'meta_query' => array( array(
        'key' => 'term_thumbnail'
