Custom cluster distance

Hi ! My question may sound silly but I am new to data mining so I do not know much. Can I define a custom distance measure for a clustering algorithm ie. k-means ? I have created some clr utds and I want to try a clustering algorithm on them. Can I do this? How is the distance calculated ? Sorry for my poor english.
Thank
ST.
