Actually it depends on the edition of the series, things change between editions. So yes Orcus was a god in one of the editions(well 3 of them actually) and then changed back into a demon lord in the 4th and 5th.

Asmodeus only became a god in the 4th edition, and only after consuming the essence of an actual god that fell into his domain. Before that he was both a demon lord and a quasi-primordial before he became a demon lord.
