Given the evidence, this sort of possibility isn't available to you.

Catholics regard Jesus as an only child, and Mary a perpetual virgin, which is idiotic. Why would God give Mary a husband if she was to be a virgin? Of course God has crazy tests for human beings, so it was possible that Joseph was this 40-ish year old guy who decided to care for 15 year old Mary and this unborn child. The Catholic Church has this "sex is dirty" taboo, with them disbelieving that adults could have coitous in the same tent as God as a baby. Well, shit, who do you think designed sex? Hugh Hefner?

The Bible is clear that Jesus had brothers and sisters and he was the oldest child. In those times people were expected to marry young and have a lot of kids, which was cool back in the day when there were only 10 million people on the whole of Earth and going10 kilometers is "a days journey".

God gave Mary a husband????

When did God do that????

And which Mary was that?????

In Greek/Roman MYTHS, the Gods had "historical children".

The very same Bible ALSO CLEARLY state that MARY was FOUND with CHILD of the Holy Ghost.

The very same Bible ALSO CLEARLY STATE that MARY told the ANGEL that she KNEW NOT a man.

Again in the BIBLE, the FATHER of Jesus is NOT Joseph.

Again, the FATHER of Jesus is a HOLY GHOST.

Once MARY had other CHILDREN AFTER she was FOUND with CHILD of the Ghost then those later children would BE BROTHERS and SISTERS of the BABY GHOST.

It is SO SIMPLE.

But, there is a problem. There is NO credible source than can corroborate anything about Jesus Christ or James the apostle in the history of antiquity.
