That is a distinct possibility. Some toad species crosses that were originally thought to be totally sterile have been shown to occasionally produce at least somewhat fertile offspring. In other species crosses one gender may be fertile while the other gender is not. Even in the best known example of sterility due to species crossing, the mule, occasional specimens are fertile. I do think it is safe to say that you fantasy frog is at best fertile at a reduced level. In all likelyhood even should he be fertile to some degree eggs and tadpoles will have a much higher rate of mortality and malformation. However if you wish to experiment more power to you, it isn't like the species is rare in captivity. It isn't a big deal if a clutch is unfertilized in the course of experimentation.
