Yes there is an association betwen Sjogren's disease and celiac disease.
In one scandanvian study a series of patients attending a rheumatological
clinic for joint pains had gliadin testing done and 10% of the sjogren's
patients had celiac disease.  it is likely the they occur due to the
similar genetics predisposition.
