Probably not : A low level ANA can be seen as a auto immune phenomenon of Hashimoto's thyroiditis (which I see you have). The specific lupus tests are (-). Joint pain without joint swelling is not a reliable diagnostic finding for lupus.

ANA result came back as 1:640 homogenous pattern. Anti-dsDNA Antibodies came back negative. I have a lot of lupus symptoms. If the Anti-dsDNA Antibodies came back negative, does this mean it's likely not Lupus? Also had TPO antibodies present at 70?
