No, Gath is the Israelite tribes before they were enslaved by the Assyrians and lost to history. For instance, they've got Benjamites (yay!). That is, Gath seems to be the northern kingdom of Israel, whereas Jews come from the southern kingdom of Judah which had only a couple of tribes and was never destroyed quite so thoroughly.
Gath has approximately the same relationship to modern Jews that Inca has to modern Mexicans.
