Maybe BG3 does have my reading in mind. It could trigger with enough defiance towards the dream visitor, I don’t know …

I have not seen an indication that when sleeping with the illithid, penettration has to be part of that. They only mentioned kissing (asking where the mouth is).
There’s much more to sex than just that, even for humans. Caressing, soft touches, ... how it can feel when someone traces their finger over your palm.
With an Illithid touching the mind directly, I would assume that sex would have many more aspects, so missing reproductive organs may not be an impediment.
Just a joke, there. I make those, from time to time, while waiting for death or more beer, whichever comes first.
