How can I ask a question about the timing of a meeting so that assumes there is a possibility to not accept it?
For example, I'm scheduled an appointment for Monday. Something has happened and it would be better if I postponed it to Tuesday but it is still possible on Monday.
Is that correct to say:
"I had only a question regarding timing of our appointment and please feel free to answer; Is that also possible that we meet on Tuesday?"

The actual question is quite good. You should use a dummy subject "it" instead of "that".
The preamble is confusing for me:
This uses the wrong tense, and there are other small errors, and I don't know what you mean by "feel free to answer". Normally when you ask a question, the freedom to answer it is implied. We sometimes say "feel free not to answer" to mean "you don't have to answer this question".
I would simplify:
You see I am trying to emphasise that this is going to be a dialogue. You need to listen and respond and be flexible.
