yes but no, set meter to read volts, above the amount being tested ( 20v DC for 0 to 20v dc ) and insert probes, one probe to "wire" or conductor of interest, like one side of the fuse, and the other probe to earth ( a known good earth like any clean shiny bit of the cars metal which is earthed ) .....meter will show volts ( not current, amps ) .....
then try the other side of the fuse...........should show same result.
if not then problem.
start at the battery and check voltage across battery with ign on, to set a battery voltage level.......
both probes across the fuse will show a voltage drop across the fuse.
remove fuse and do a resistance/continuity check across fuse ....if fuse blown, then no continuity ( very very very very very very very high resistance or infinity ) if fuse ok then no resistance.
you have instructions for the multimeter?
