Not really.
Egyptians derive most of their ancestry from their ancient ancestors, and Copts are genetically very closer to the Muslim counterparts and their Southern Levantine neighbors. Oblvion's father's Y-DNA is J1-P58, and the sub-clade within is from the Arabian peninsula, and she's Coptic.

This one person not a study with multiple samples.
Heres a study:
"A 2015 study by Dobon et al. identified an ancestral autosomal component of West Eurasian origin that is common to many modern Afroasiatic-speaking populations in Northeast Africa. Known as the Coptic component, it peaks among Egyptian Copts who settled in Sudan over the past two centuries. Copts also formed a separated group in PCA, a close outlier to other Egyptians, Afroasiatic-speaking Northeast Africans and Middle East populations. The Coptic component evolved out of a main Northeast African and Middle Eastern ancestral component that is shared by other Egyptians and also found at high frequencies among other Afroasiatic-speaking populations in Northeast Africa (~70%). The scientists suggest that this points to a common origin for the general population of Egypt. They also associate the Coptic component with Ancient Egyptian ancestry, without the later Arabic influence that is present among other Egyptians, especially people of the Sinai."
