Yes. According to the shared tradition of the Quran and the Bible, the ancestral lineage of the Jewish people traces back to Prophet Jacob (peace be upon him).
Prophet Jacob (peace be upon him) was also known as Israel.
Prophet Jacob (peace be upon him) was the son of Prophet Isaac (peace be upon him).
Prophet Isaac (peace be upon him) was the son of Prophet Abraham (peace be upon him).
Prophet Jacob (peace be upon him) had twelve sons, from whom the twelve tribes of the Children of Israel (Bani Israel) are descended.
Judah was among them; the name "Jew" (or Judaism) later came to be derived from the name of Judah.
The lineage can be understood as follows:
Prophet Abraham (PBUH) → Prophet Isaac (PBUH) → Prophet Jacob/Israel (PBUH) → 12 Sons → 12 Tribes of the Children of Israel
In the Quran, Prophet Jacob (peace be upon him) is referred to as Israel; for instance, he is mentioned in Surah Al-Imran (3:93) and Surah Maryam (19:58).
If you wish, I can present the names of Prophet Jacob's (peace be upon him) twelve sons, the tribe associated with each son, and Judah's connection to the Jewish people using a diagram or family tree.
