There's no general way to find out whether a routed packet (such as an
IP packet) that your machine received was originally sent over an
Ethernet interface, a Wi-Fi interface, a GPRS/EDGE/HS*PA/EV-DO/...
interface, an ATM interface, a PPP-over-a-dialup-line interface,
etc.. All you know is the type of interface over which it's received,
but somebody could have sent you a packet over an Ethernet interface
and it might have been routed to you over a Wi-Fi interface, for
example.
