Yes, here are a few ways to do what you want

In[1]:=
data={{x1,y1},{x2,y2},{xn,yn}};
{First@#,f@First@#}&/@data

Out[2]=
{{x1, f[x1]}, {x2, f[x2]}, {xn, f[xn]}}

In[4]:=
Transpose@{data[[All,1]],f/@data[[All,1]]}

Out[4]=
{{x1, f[x1]}, {x2, f[x2]}, {xn, f[xn]}}

In[5]:=
{#,f@#}&/@data[[All,1]]

Out[5]=
{{x1, f[x1]}, {x2, f[x2]}, {xn, f[xn]}}
