Yes, that is one use of the objective case "whom" (the subjective is "who"). Many times, however, colloquial use will separate the preposition and the wrong case will be used.
Examples:
"We did not know to whom the package should be addressed."
"Ask not for whom the bell tolls."
"With whom was he travelling when the accident happened?"
(the incorrect form Who was he travelling with? is very common)

'Whom' is used as the object of a sentence, typically following a preposition or a verb. Use 'whom' when referring to the object of a verb or a preposition, while 'who' is used as the subject. For example, you would say "To whom did you give the book?" because 'whom' is the object of the preposition 'to.'
In the nominative case, the function of the noun is to serve as the subject of the sentence, performing the action of the verb. In the objective case, the noun functions as the direct object, receiving the action of the verb.

Prepositions typically show a relationship between a noun/pronoun and another element in a sentence, while adverbs modify verbs, adjectives, or other adverbs. To determine if a word is a preposition or an adverb, check if it is followed by a noun/pronoun (preposition) or if it modifies a verb/adjective/adverb (adverb).
"Whose" is a possessive pronoun used to indicate ownership or association, while "whom" is an object pronoun used to refer to the object of a verb or preposition. For example, "Whose book is this?" (ownership) and "To whom should I address this letter?" (object of the preposition).
