The notion of the ten lost tribes of Israel refers to the ancient Israelites who were exiled after the Assyrians defeated Israel in 722 BCE. Presumably they were assimilated into the indigenous populations with which they were exiled, and thus lost their separate ethnic identity. However, many have been uncomfortable that Israelites would so readily forsake their ancient God or their separate identity, and so look for evidence that the lost tribes survived after all. Various people of Jewish faith, such as Ethiopian Jews and Jews from various parts of Asia have been suggested as the long-lost missing tribes.
The original Israelite exiles were lost to history long before the death of Judas Maccabee in 161 BCE. He could not have entered into a covenant with them.

Why there is 2 james and 2 Judas in tha apostles?
James and Judas (Jude) were pretty common names back then. So was John. But wasn't one of the Judas dismissed by Jesus just before he made a 'covenant for a kingdom' with the remaining apostles? He wasn't even included in the observance of the passing of the bread and wine - - then he went out and did the suicide thing.
Why did translators anglicize the name of one disciple named Judas but not the other one also named Judas?
The names are identical in the original and also in other modern languages. For example, in Spanish we have Judas Iscariota and San Judas Tadeo. There are some conspiracy theories about antisemitic translators trying to make Judas Iscariot seem more Jewish, although the disciples and Jesus were all Jewish. One complicating factor is that Judah, one of the 12 tribes of Israel, is also the same name as Jude and Judas. Judah in Spanish, for example, is also Judas.
Was Judas an anti-hero?
I think that is a fairly accurate description of Judas' character, since he is definitely not a hero, and I would not say he is villain. So if you were to create a fictional story about a character based on Judas Iscariot, we could label him an anti-hero.
Why did the church never add a twelfth disciple to take Judas' place and instead choose to carry on without him?
The church did not add a twelfth disciple to replace Judas because they believed that Judas' betrayal and subsequent death fulfilled a prophecy, and they chose to continue with the eleven remaining disciples as a symbolic representation of the twelve tribes of Israel.
