Yes, and indirect blocks that may be needed, depending on the file system, and also the size of any filesystem journal. Th du command doesn't know about such things, and can't in general (e.g. not all file systems have ways to report it). The df command looks at total available space, which will be reduced by inode blocks; df -i gives some information about inode usage.
