I know there are some rumors/sources floating around saying that Naoto and Kallen were only half-siblings (I think it may have been one of the games exclusive to Japan?), but to my knowledge those sources aren't considered part of the franchise's main canon and should be taken with a grain of salt. Nothing in the show or even the side materials (Picture Dramas, Audio Dramas, etc) indicate that Kallen and Naoto were anything less than full-blooded siblings.

I also feel that such a point would have shown up in Kallen's narration, considering how identity is such a big motivator for her and a factor in her overall plot, and as she didn't mention it all it's probably non-existent. I see this whole half-sibling thing as the result of a writer realizing that Kallen's backstory has been horribly neglected and is either trying (poorly) to fill it out and spice it up, or just add needless drama. Who knows?

(Also, her mother doesn't seem like that type of person. At all.)
