No. Hercules' mother was a mortal named Alcmena. His father was indeed, Zeus, king of the gods. Hera hated Hercules not only because it wasn't her son, but also because Zeus loved Hercules more than her. This made Hera jealous. Disney was not faithful to Greek mythology with their 1997 animated theatrical film, "Hercules". In this movie, Hera was Hercules' mother and both she and Zeus loved him very much. Zeus seems a faithful husband to Hera. In Greek mythology, he wasn't, at least by our standards.
