Yes and no. While Thanatos is responsible for making sure people stay dead as well as bring people to the Underworld, that doesn't mean he is anti-life. In fact by going out and having children, he would be increasing the population and would some day bring his own children to the Underworld, thus creating job security. The creation of more life causes more death.
