I assume you are talking about the idea of many worlds interpretation of quantum mechanics being true. You could for instance have a particular alien existing in one world but not another. The problem is the claim for a god existing is a lot different than the claim that an alien exists. Most people define "god" as a creator of reality. This means that god is a meta-claim about the nature of reality. That is a claim all of reality was created. This is totally different than a claim that an alien exists.
So the answer is no, either all of reality is "created" or it is not.
And when you can explain how a "complex creator god" can "just exist" let me know. It seems to me like the notion of god just makes the problem much much bigger than it was to begin with.

According to Quantum Theory everything, including God, IS nothing.

Quantum theory has nothing to say about God one way or the other. God is not something that can be quantified by science.

Religions like to say god lives within, i believe in that because god is in your mind.
However particle physics is close to deciphering the string theory ( the inner working of matter is made of strings of energy)
with or without string theory we could theorize that since all matter was created from an unquantifiable amt of energy ( big bang) then we are all made of the same stuff and thus "god" is the universe itself and we are made of the stuff of god, hence god is in us all

I don't think quantum theory applies to anything larger than sub-atomic particles. So unless god is a quark I'd have to say no...
Hmm... do you suppose god would be an up quark or a down quark if he did exist and were a quark? I'd have to say strange, actually.

LOL!!! You have proven a learned person can be a fool too!!
GOD doesnt "follow" our petty rules, of this and that.
You cant explain GOD!! Not with these limited bounded rules that we make for ourselves...
Sheesh!! We just recently proved that light theory can be changed, slowed down or sped up now...so, even that changes...
GOD who is the Creator of ALL, lets us have silly rules that we invent for ourselves to make us think we are "important", and that we "know" this and that, but in the end, we will find out that its absolutely nonesense that we know so little, and thought we knew it all....
I wish you well..

Hmmm... if observation changes the nature... interesting question.
I suppose it would depend on whether or not this god had physical properties. If so, put it in a box and we'll let Schrodinger figure it out. *grins*
