Yes, though they are at variance, the genealogies in both Matthew's and Luke's Gospel trace Jesus' lineage through Israel whose other name was Jacob, making Jesus racially Jewish (Matt 1:2, Luke 3:34)

Luke also notes Jesus being dedicated at the temple, meaning that his parents raised him in at least a nominally observant Jewish household. (Luke 2:22). He never repudiated this, and instead of denying the laws of Moses, claimed to fulfill them (Matt 5:17).
