No. The 1098-E is loan interest and probably will not be sent until Jan 31. You can usually check your account on the website for the loan.
A 1098-T reports school tuition paid.
Wait for the paperwork, It is too early to file anyway since the IRS does not even open until the end of January.

What do you mean by " file my taxes for my student loan"? The 1098-T and 1098-E are not the same thing.
You are allowed an adjustment to income ( deduction) for interest paid on a student loan. The interest you paid is documented on form 1098-E, by the loan company.
If, instead, you are trying to claim a tuition credit or deduction for the tuition, book and fee expenses paid by the loan, the 1098-T is the correct form. In that case you do not file/claim the loan itself; you claim the qualifying expenses paid by the loan and/or out of pocket.
