Not a direct verse. There are possibilities, though. The Bible says that Elizabeth, who bore John the Baptist, was a kinsman of Mary, that is, a relative. Elizabeth was married to the high priest of that year, Zechariah, a Levite. Levites could only take a wife from the tribe of Levi as well. We do not know if Mary was related to Elizabeth from the same line or by marriage to Zechariah. but whatever the case, Mary had relatives in the tribe of Levi, the priestly tribe. This means that Jesus had blood relations to Levi and the priesthood, as well as legal lineage of Joseph to David. This can all be found in Luke 1.
So while we do not know by exactly who connected Mary to Elizabeth, it has to be someone and Joachim and Anna (Hannah) are a possibility, though I personally would question some of the stories involving them such as Mary serving at the temple at age 3 as Samuel did, or the birth of Mary in Anna's old age, like Sarah or Elizabeth. So it is not a surprise to hear of relations among the tribe of Levi for this much the bible does make clear in Luke 1.

The apocryphal Gospel of James is where the tradition of Saint Anne and Saint Joachim being the parents of the Blessed Virgin Mary originated.
