I would think so. At some point in any religion you've got to suspend rational and scientific thought in order to avoid conflict with faith. Therefore it's possible for me to simultaneously believe in Darwin's theory of evolution and the creation story. Do I believe that God created Adam from dust and Eve from Adam's rib? No. Do I believe that God created the world in 6 days? No. (Actually in college, we used to say that God fucked the dog for 5 days and then pulled an all-nighter.) Do I accept the story of Adam and Eve and the creation story as tenets of my religion? Yes.
