Well yeah.
The nipples could be forgiven, as there are egg laying creatures that breast feed.
The belly button is a little more problematic, but one could imagine ways in which an egg-hatched species could have one.
For example, if the Gorn are somewhat like the Pierson's Puppeteer they might reproduce by infecting the eggs of another species with a larval parasite, the host acting as a kind of mother/placental mass which the larval Gorn connects to via umbilical cord.
Alternatively, one Gorn egg could initially contain several Gorns, each connected umbilically to each other or all to a common starting point.

Platypuses don’t have nipples.
Also, we don’t talk about SNW Gorn.
