No, Alduin is an immortal, yes, all dragons are, but that does not make him a god. All dragons claim to be "children of Akatosh" and even Alduin does this, claiming to be "first-born". I don't think he would say that if he were a piece or even an aspect of Akatosh. He is just a very powerful dragon with the most powerful Voice, evident by him being able to bring back dragons from the dead and to use Meteor-Storm and to be able to travel to Sovngarde.
