No he isn't. They have breeding camps to keep their species alive. Allen himself stresses about having sex with his girlfriend because Unopans aren't supposed to have sex with anybody - he worries if his "cycles" are off or low, he'll get in trouble. So clearly, even Allen is expected to donate genetic material to keep the species alive.

I wonder if what makes him so powerful (or able to get so powerful) can be transferred to his offspring. If so, Unopans can get near to Viltrumite power levels as a species.

Even if it can, I doubt Unopan's would stay at Viltrumite levels for long. Allen was weaker than viltrumites naturally and needed several boosts to get to his final power level. Once people realize that Unopans can survive otherwise fatal injuries and gain a boost from them, they'll probably adapt and just start beheading them completely.
