It's possible -- but let's not worry too much yet. I'll explain. In that a sarcoma is a tumor (benign or malignant) that occurs in cartilage or bone, and it's easliest detectable symptom is usually pain in that area, it might feel like a pulled muscle, which also hurts. However, pulled muscles are LOTS more common than sarcoma. There's a saying in medicine: "When you hear hoofbeats, expect horses". In this case, I would not assume the more exotic diagnosis of a sarcoma as the first choice. There are maybe 40 things that would come first on the list, and at the top of the list would be bruising of the bone or muscle at the sight, or a strain, sprain or pull.
