Normally yes the fans do come on at odd times.
Crank or cam sensor could be a problem but normally you would get error codes.

Must be crank sensor, you can't see the code when starting the engine coz the check engine light is always on anyway when cranking.

However if you do a diagnostic check later, you will see the code.
