Of course he can, he just chooses not to.

The big three of the Olympians were Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades. When ever two of these three came into conflict with each other they chose arbitration rather than battle - this demonstrates self-control.

eg. When Hades raped Zeus' daughter Persephone (kidnapped her and forced her to marry him) Zeus initially did nothing, preferring not to contend with Hades. It was only after extensive protests by Ceres (the girl's mother) that Zeus worked out a compromise that was decidedly in Hades' favour.

eg. When Zeus and Poseidon contended over the nymph Thetis, Prometheus arbitrated and gave the nymph to a mortal king so neither of the Gods could have her.
