iPhone and notifications

Hi guys, this is a very simple question. You know that new notifications in iPhone appear in the screen when the phone is blocked and if you swipe up (without unblocking the phone), you can see old notifications or those notifications that you didn't read previously when you open your phone, right? Well, my question is that if it possible to prevent new notifications from appearing in the main screen and make them appear directly in this part of "old notifications" when you swipe up the screen. I hope it makes sense! Thanks.

    Let’s get some terminology sorted. When the phone is locked you see the Lock Screen. If you swipe up on the Lock Screen (without unlocking) you see Notification Centre (that you would normally access by swiping down from the top left of the screen). 

    If you go to Settings>Notifications you can choose (on an app by app basis) whether a notification appears on the Lock Screen and or in Notification Centre.

    Set the notifications to "deliver quietly" and it will go directly to the notification centre. Not sure if it goes to the old notifications section, but it will just appear on the notifications, without any sounds, screen lighting up or anything.
