The paradox of this question does not reflect on G-d. Rather, it reflects on our human limitations to comprehend the divine. We must put G-d in human terms to consider him (for this is our own frame of reference and understanding), and this is not at all accurate, and results in a very limited and subjective understanding of G-d.
Due to this, when trying to comprehend G-d, paradoxes come into the equation. Similarly, you could ask if G-d can duplicate himself or destroy himself or limit his power, or remove himslef from a certain place or time, or chose not to know something. These are all the same type of paradoxical questions that do not reflect on the objective and true nature of G-d, but rather on the smallness of our own mind and our inability to comprehend the divine.

In an n-dimensional universe God can do both.
He can create something so heavy that He himself cannot carry it and in the same time He himself can carry it.

God is not separate from anything...and so there is no separate body to do the lifting.
Omnipotence and Omnipresence are confusing to the mind. But being able to do anything within itself is the answer.

The church will get back to you on this one when they have finally decided how many angels can dance on the head of a pin.

No. God can't do anything out of His nature. So He can't do something He can't do.

No, because gods are imaginary.
