Nope, still a violation once you distribute them as you are then distributing copyrighted matierial without the owner's permission to users who may or may not have the right to use them (ie, users without Portal cannot use them)

also if you copy them by recreating you are also violating copyright laws

No. If you create a similar model from scratch using the Portal models as inspiration, you are fine as you will never get it 100% identical (GoldSrc cannot render models as well as Source).
