Yes, there is no difference. We tend to add in more detail in sentences in English sometimes just to make our meaning more clear or to emphasize a point. We can leave out the "in order to" and the sentence still has the same meaning. In order to just means, 'as a way of/to', so in this sentence it is just clarifying why he raised his voice.
