we don't know whether Andrew and Peter were brothers [in the modern sense of children of the same parents] or whether Lazarus was the brother of Mary and Martha?

No, strictly speaking we don't know that from scripture alone, unless there is a passage somewhere in the scripture(?) that lists their parents.

And you don't know from scripture whether Jesus had brothers and sisters since from your point of view, if the names are not linked to a parent, they could be siblings, relatives, friends or members of the common community.
