Easily. Even though much of the bible is fiction, that does not mean that you cannot believe in god, even in an interactive god if you wish. The dinosaurs and other evidence of earth's history can be attributed to a god if that provides a satisfaction. However, since no such belief is refutable, it cannot predict anything.

Firstly, I hope that no one, atheist or religious, "believes in" dinosaurs. To "believe in" means to put trust in and to depend on a given thing or person. Why would anyone put their trust in a giant and relatively dumb reptile? I of course know what you intend to be asking, but would caution that you watch over the language you use.
Now to the point: There is no reason why belief in the past or present existence of dinosaurs would come into conflict with my belief in and believing in their (the dinosaurs') and my Eternal Creator. The truth of the existence of dinosaurs is about as shaking to me as the truth of the existence of my cats.

Read in the Bible the book of Job, I believe Chapter 40. There are descriptions there that are much like a dinosaur.

There are dinosaurs in the Bible, Job 40:15-24 note that it tail was like a cedar, how big do cedar trees get? Could have been a Brachiosaure, you can do a web search on them

I don't understand you question. I believe in god and that dinosaurs existed. But, maybe I cannot relate to you question because i'm not "religious" as you mention in your question.

Intelligent Design! There is a God/intelligent force/essence, but that higher power created evolution and the beginnings of everything, but also set evolution rolling!

Why not? Dinosaurs are real, and not a superstitious thing. There are ample evidence of their existance from the fossiles and bones.
