It's possible because one of God's attributes is infinity (an infinite being) and infinity has no beginning and no end, therefore God is the first cause.
If god has been around for an 'infinity', then we would not be here as an infinite amount of time has not passed, nor ever will.
If god is placed 'outside' time, then our universe must be outside time as well.
If both are outside time, then there is no causality and everything just 'is'.
Without time god could not create the universe because there was no 'before there was a universe'.
This is your misunderstanding. Within an infinite realm, this universe is created and expanding.
Why must an infinite realm need time? If you think time is needed then God has an infinite amount of time to create the universe.
