That's a rather loose definition of God, don't you think? It might be closer to the truth to say Carbon is one of the atoms that make up large portions of the organic molecules in all known life.
Last I heard the Gods were supernatural beings that have power over humans and love creating/destroying things. They are usualy sentient beings that have some sort of interest in humans.
Carbon are just little dots that bonds with oxygen and hydrogen to build elephants and trees.
Gods simply do not bond with elementry particles to make elephants (or trees). Sorry to burst you bubble.
