Yes.

This is kind of an advanced techniques thing, and I have personally never done it, but in theory here's how it works:

You're going to flower your clone and take one branch and expose it to gibberelin so that it expresses sex as male and produce pollen, which then is used to pollinate the rest of the plant. If you're inside, you probably need to take a very soft paint brush and hand-pollinate the female sex parts.

The plant will now produce seeds of its own genetics. Now, how similar the resulting seedlings are in phenotype to the parent plant I believe depends upon how stable the strain is.

I'm getting into something that I'm not too too familiar with, so someone correct me if there's a mistake here.
