Well, gods are beyond me, I suppose they can reproduce any manner they see fit.

Certainly, it's evident in Greek Mythology: Hercules, Apollo and Diana, Athena (who sprang fully armored from Zeus' head), and Persephone; in Tolkien: Melian the Maia; and in Christianity: Jesus, son of God (I always felt bad for Joseph in that regard); as well as in Egyptian, Hindu and Norse mythos (and many others).
