No. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act eliminated the moving expense deduction for most taxpayers. Beginning in tax year 2018, it is deductible only in certain circumstances for military-related moves.
Prior to the elimination of the deduction, rent and food would not have been deductible moving expenses. You could only claim those expenses that the IRS deemed "reasonable and necessary to your move," such as mileage, rental trucks, short-term storage, or boxes.
