Yes, probably. You should contact the health care professional who gave you the Tamiflu order and see if they recommend that you get the vaccination when it becomes available. It won't hurt to take it even if you were exposed to the virus already, and it would be better safe than sorry.

There is a chance that if your family member had confirmed A-H1N1/09 influenza and you were in direct contact with them while they were sick, you may have acquired immunity from that exposure. The Tamiflu is not the same as a vaccination and it does not prevent infection with a virus unless you get it at just the right time, usually it is given to lessen the symptoms and speed the recovery when you do contract the disease.
