Orangutans and chimps are apes. The fossil evidence is, I think, sufficiently complete that this possibility can be ruled out, unless you go awfully far back (Aegyptopithecus, for example, dates from around 35 mya). It seems to me that the same evidence that disproves creationism serves to confute this idea, and for many of the same reasons.
