Deidara didnt have the affinities necessary for Dust Release...however it would seem Ohnoki still had some influence on him though. his C4 Garuda works similar to Dust Release workings on turning one to dust and his C0 resembles a Particle Style Technique in terms of shape.

When he was fighting Ohonki, on turtle island, he wanted to see which was stronger the C4 Garuda or the Particle Style...further proving my theory
