No.

Moving expenses are no longer deductible, except for military relocations.

Under the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017, §11048 and 11049, both the taxpayer’s moving expense deduction and the exclusion of an employer’s reimbursement or payment of the taxpayer’s moving expenses have been suspended except for military relocation.

Per the tax laws that changed for 2018 and beyond, moving expenses are not deductible on a federal return except for certain active duty members of the military.

There are several states that allow a deduction for moving expenses on the state return: AZ, AR, CA, HI, IA, MA, MN, NJ, NY, PA and VA You can enter your moving expenses in the federal software and the information will flow to your state return.
