Yes, to the National Guard miles. It depends, for the school miles. Even if you can deduct the school miles (which I'll get to in a moment), you will need to separate the two amounts out because they would get treated differently.
For the National Guard miles you will be able to deduct these by filling out Form 2106. BE SURE to mark that this is for the National Guard as it gets a special treatment: it is a direct deduction instead of an itemized deduction, which is a bigger benefit. If you have other unreimbursed expenses for your work in the Guard, you would also include these here.
For schooling, mileage is typically only claimable if you are claiming a work-education expense. Please see this FAQ: https://ttlc.intuit.com/replies/3300866. If the education is for the Guard, you can claim them together with the other Guard miles and expenses. However, if you do so, you will not be entitled to other education benefits like the American Opportunity Credit or other educational credits. If your education is work-related for a separate job, you will file a separate Form 2106, mentioning for what job it is. This expense is subject to itemized deductions as the FAQ mentioned.
