Actually, it kinda did. In End Times in WFB, Skaven managed to psychically contact a Craftworld:

That title is extremely misleading. The actual text is extremely vague, the Skaven used a strange device and began to hear a voice that sounded like the elves, but they couldn't understand it so they destroyed the device.
That's it.
Typical misleading title.

Anywho, I've always considered Skaven canon in 40k as abhumans in the same way Beastmen are.

The device is described as "speaking to beings that dwell beyond the stars" and Fantasy and 40k are meant to be entirely separate settings.

I don't doubt that the writer was including a vague "maybe maybe, te he" reference/easteregg to Eldar.

But I think it's a long way from being anything actually linking the two universes.
