Assuming that the knight was reproductively capable (i.e. he suffered no serious injuries to his groin region or was not naturally sterile), there was no impediment to a knight having a family and children.

Some medieval knights married, and some did not. There were monastic orders, whose knights took vows just like other monks. But aside from them, knights were pretty much free to marry as they chose, except for constraints that might be imposed by kings and so forth, who might have intended specific wives for them for some reason (unlikely) or made sure they did not marry specific women, such as princesses, who would have been intended for other kings.

They technically could, I mean but they werent allowed to get married so any kids they had would be illegitimate. Naturally since they didnt have paternity tests they would be pretty safe unless they were ratted out by the kids mom. Who probably would not be believed so like I said they were pretty safe.

Yes, they were married and had children. Knights were nobles and nobles were knights. Only nobles could be knights. Often the male children became knights as well.
