No.
Here's a link to the Internet Movie Data Base, where a 'mini-bio' is, with several Elfman names in blue, as links to what they do.
No Jenna is mentioned, though Danny Elfman's first wife and mother of his daughters, Loli and Mali, isn't named at all, nor a date of divorce.
http://www.imdb.com/name/nm000010384/bio
There is also a short bio at Wiki:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Danny_Elfman which also has no mention of Jenna.
Elfman is said to be (first with __ ?) then engaged to Bridget Fonda, with whom he has a son, Oliver, born '05. A brother and mother are also involved in media. There is bit more, you'll see, though most Wiki "External Links" now lead only to useless domains.
Checked Jenna too http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jenna_Elfman and her parents and career are entirely different; except the media angle.

Elfman also wrote the theme for the video game Fable. He is also famous for creating The Simpsons main title theme, and his role as Jack Skellington's singing voice in The Nightmare Before Christmas. He is the Uncle in-law to actress Jenna Elfman.
Jenna met her husband, actor Bodhi Elfman, at a Sprite commercial audition in February 1991. They married in 1995, making director Richard Elfman her father-in-law and noted composer Danny Elfman her uncle-in-law.
Is Danny related to Jenna Elfman? Yes, Jenna is related to Danny through marriage. Jenna is married to Danny's brother's son, Bodhi. That makes Jenna his niece.
