Yes.  You enter the mileage on Form 2106, which will calculate out your amount at 54 cents a mile.  (You will also enter any other business expenses you are entitled to claim: union dues, work supplies, etc.)  Then you will enter the amount of reimbursement you received.  The difference is claimable as part of itemized deductions.
