Atenism lasted for around 20 years and virtually nothing is known about it. There is also no proof that there was any interaction between the Jews and Atenist Egyptians.
Also the timeline doesn't add up, Akhenaten ended in Egypt before even the first evidence of Yahwism (Jewish Polytheism) appeared. Jews became Monolatrist/Henotheist maybe around the 9th century BC, along with other states in the Mesopotamia and Levant regions that also worshipped just one god. And evidence for actual Monotheism came even later. So unless there was some secret Atenist society through all these centuries that ended up influencing the Jews some time in the 6th century, it's probably a coincidence.
