James and the other brothers were the children of Joseph, but not of Mary. Well they could have been half brothers through different mothers, polygamy wasn't outlawed by judaism until several hundred years ago.

I don't believe it was practiced in Judaism by the time of Jesus. The story was that Joseph was a widower.
