Yes, in at least two ways actually. Princess Madeleine's paternal grandparents were both descendants of Queen Victoria, Queen Elizabeth's gg-grandmother:
Queen Victoria
Edward VII
George V
George VI
Elizabeth II
Queen Victoria
Prince Arthur
Princess Margaret
Prince Gustav Adolf
Carl XVI Gustaf
Princess Madeleine
Queen Victoria
Prince Leopold
Prince Charles Edward
Princess Sibylla
Carl XVI Gustaf
Princess Madeleine
This makes Elizabeth and Madeleine third cousins once removed twice over.

Yes. She's a third cousin once removed of Queen Elizabeth II.
Queen Victoria was her great-great-great-great grandmother.

Well, all european royal famillys probably are related in one way or another going back enough in time.
Queen Elizabeth II is the great-great-great-great granddaughter of King George II, and Madeleines father King Carl XVI Gustaf of Sweden is his great-great-great-grandson.
