Yes.
The Ghost, which is the ship manned by the rebel cell in
Star Wars Rebels appeared in the battle over Scarif in
Rogue One.
The captain of the Ghost, Hera Syndulla, was mentioned by name at the rebel base on Yavin but has apparently been elevated to the rank of General. Chopper, her droid, was also shown on the Yavin base.
The character of Saw Guerera, who first appeared in The Clone Wars series, was played by Forrest Whitaker in
Rogue One, and has now appeared in Rebels this season.
According to Simon Kinberg and Dave Filoni, two of the guys that are part of the Lucasfilm story group, there will be more crossovers in the future. Everything in both animated series and the new Marvel comics are all canon.
