Yeah, but its is unlikely that they will bite you, because all though they are half vampire they're against the whole vampire-drinking-human-blood thing, possibly because their own mother would have been used like that by their vampire father.
You can be bitten by a Dhampir just as well as you could be bitten by a dog or a cat or another human being. They may have a yen for the taste of blood but, as they are already living, they have no need or craving like a vampire has. Besides Dhampirs are usually vampire hunters and are against the vampire culture so they wouldn't (usually) condone the practice. (Its probably a nurture thing, they being raised to hate vampires.)

How do you become a vampire with out dying and getting bitten?
Sorry, but to meet the definition of a vampire you have to die. You can become a potential vampire by having a vampire father and a living mother. This condition is known as a Dhampir.
What is a Dhampir?
A Dhampir is the child of a vampire and a human, essentially a hybrid of both. More specifically, a dhampir is the child of a father who is a vampire, and a mother who is human.
Do dhampirs need to be bitten after birth or are they already vampires?
A Dhampir inherits the vampire potential from a vampire father. They are born with this condition, they do not need to be bitten to get it. The condition co-exists with them through-out their life they just have no need to employ it as they are already alive they have all the life-force they need. After they die then they have to commence stealing life-force in order to perpetuate their existence. A deadly sick Dhampir however may commence to steal life-force in order to save his life. This is a rare occurrence and is not much reported upon. Conceivably a Dhampir could boster his physical health and help himself recover from serious illness or injury by stealing life-force then recommence his ordinary life after he has recovered or healed.

Do vampires have to bite their babies or are they automatically vampires?
Male vampires may reproduce with a human woman but there have been no records or even rumors of a vampire mother. The child of a male vampire and a human woman is known as a Dhampir. This is an ancient Slavic belief not a modern embellishment. A Dhampir has a 'taint' of his father's inclinations (as all children do) but cannot utilize any vampire trait to anywhere near its full potential. When a Dhampir dies he has the option to become a full vampire without having been bitten or infected in anyway other than his inheritance. Most Dhampirs however are vampire hunters (probably a result of a bias upbringing) and most have their bodies destroyed after or near the time of their (impending) death so they won't become a vampire.
When a male vampire and a female human have a dhampir will the dhampir live forever like the father?
Dhampirs are usually mortal like their human parent and will not live forever like the vampire parent. However, they may possess some vampire-like traits and abilities, but their lifespan is typically that of a human.
