This seems to be one of the many unanswered questions often boxed into the "myths" category.
So... for what it's worth:
The answer is...
"technically yes".
“Turns out, Elvis’ maternal great-great grandmother, Nancy Burdine, was believed to be Jewish. Her daughter gave birth to Doll Mansell, who gave birth to Elvis’ mother, Gladys Smith. That, according to a Jewish law, which confers Jewish lineage by way of the mother, makes Elvis technically a Jew.”
