So there can be atheist Christians and atheist Muslims as well?

No. For one thing, those religions specifically require a belief in God, and believe that through free will people all make a choice to be Christian or Muslim. Judaism however believes that God chooses who is Jewish, and its a predestined thing. That's why Jews don't try to convert anyone, and in fact a rabbi is supposed to talk someone out of converting. According to Judaism,  you can never stop being Jewish,  regardless of your beliefs .

Also there is an ethnic group, Ashkenazi, which is largely called Jewish. So if you are part of that ethnic group, you may consider yourself Jewish regardless of your beliefs.

You can test that with a dna test. Certainly Christians and Muslims reject that you can be either and an atheist, and reject that you can test Christianity with a dna test.
