I don't think it's accurate to describe Zen having its own deities. At least as practiced in my center, we don't deify the Buddha but we do show respect for him and his teachings. What's more, it's not unusual for someone to practice a theistic religion (say, Christianity or Judaism) and also practice Zen. There need not be a conflict.
