Yes.

Use "subscribe" to tell Mutt about mailing lists you are subscribed
to. When you post to a subscribed list, mutt will generate a
Mail-Followup-To header which says that followups only should be
sent to the list.

Use "lists" to tell Mutt about mailing lists you are not subscribed
to. When you post to an unsubscribed list, mutt will generate a
Mail-Followup-To header which says that followups should be sent
both to you and to the list.

Please see the manual for the glory details. Section 3.9 Mailing
lists and section 4.8 Handling Mailing Lists.
