Yes, the pronoun 'whom' is the objective form for 'who'. The pronouns 'who' and 'whom' are both interrogative pronouns and relative pronouns. The objective 'whom' is more often seen as the object of a preposition. Examples:

Interrogative: To whom should I give my completed application form?

Relative: The customer for whom we ordered the special wheels is here for pick up.
