While genetically possible, I think the major halt to cross-clan offspring among the Miqo'te is their huge difference in culture. Sure, there are individuals who are exceptions and stray from their clan's traditions (and a large % of roleplayers like to be that "special exception", I've found), but commonly, Seekers of the Sun are a patriarchal, tribal culture, while Keepers of the Moon are matriarchal and live in small families. The lore also says that both clans have an insular mentality and tend to live among their own kin rather, trying to avoid the other races.
But to go back to the inter-clan mating, I think a woman coming from a matriarchal structure and a male from a patriarchal one would be in heavy conflict, as both consider themselves the "leader" of the family. The same also goes if they were of opposite genders.
Seeker Female: Hey love, my sister also wants a child. I'm gonna call her over to mate with ya.
*the Keeper male flees*
Seeker Male 1: Hey, I'll be back in a hour or two, okay? Another female in my tribe wants a child and I'm their Nuhn.
*the Keeper female begins to seek ways to break Eternal Bond*
Seeker Male 2: Okay, now that I have you, I think I am officially no longer a Tia. We'll need to find more females.
*the second Keeper female seeks the first Keeper female to know how to break Eternal Bond*
So yeah... Hybrids are possible, but likely very rare because it's rare to find parents not influenced by their clan's mentality.
But again, you'll find that most of the RPers out there like to be "the rare case". So go on ahead.

To be an interesting, intriguing, well-written character, there needs to be something to allow the audience to relate to them. That is what the problem is with who wants their character to be "perfect". Perfect characters will never be strong, and strong characters will never be perfect, because WE (those who read, who watch, who RP) are not perfect.
