Yup, it's possible. But it's determined by CAOS instead of genetics. Of course, with some editing you could have the CAOS check for a certain chemical to determine the amount of eggs.
I'm pretty sure I've had multiple births in my game without messing around with CAOS commands. They're very rare, but they do happen.
You have to be honest with yourself when you are writing. If that leads to somewhere unexpected then perhaps you really needed to go there.
