Is the earth in essentially the same position it was everyday before?

The earth spins and creates our days. My understanding is that at noon each day, the sun is generally at the highest point.

Does the position of earths spin offer any insight into what time of day it is in such a way that, if one had a model of earth on a fixed axis, like a globe, that one could say with some certainty if the position of the sun was also at a fixed position, you could tell what time it is by looking at the planet’s face?

Would the elliptical orbit around the sun make this impossible without a more complicated mechanical solar system model?
