that's quite possible, but then again it could have just came off the track towards the front of the door, that's happened to mine a few times in the TGP, take your door panel off and check the window alignment with the front guide, it's just two 10mm bolts holding it, so if it's off it'll take a matter of a couple of seconds to fix it right back up!

my regal did that too, it was the front guide rail or whatever
when the front edge of the window was comming up, a rubber guide went on the wrong side of my window, so after i took the door apart, some super glue held it back onto the metal guide it should be sitting on (it was the weather strip that goes across the top of the window, where it goes down into the door right by the mirror, one thing i could do to get the window up was as soon as i could see the top of it, to pull it into the car while i used the switch to make it go up...
mine was the passenger side window, try doing that in the rain while driving!!

ahhh i took it apart, that left hand guid was loose and the retaining nuts backed themselves off, and the window fell out, i put the window back in the guide, adjusted it snug, and tightend it up, seems to be working well.
