    Sure. You will need to wrap the user() function into a isnull() check

    if(isnull( value ), "--", user(value))

    Thinking this is what you mean? 

    if(isnull("--"),"--",user(fv!row['recordType!OCSC Nonclinical Service Tracking Entry.fields.{team_lead}team_lead'], "firstName") & " " & user(fv!row['recordType!OCSC Nonclinical Service Tracking Entry.fields.{team_lead}team_lead'], "lastName"))

    That would make no sense. Try this.

    if(
      isnull(fv!row['recordType!OCSC Nonclinical Service Tracking Entry.fields.{team_lead}team_lead']),
      "--",
      user(fv!row['recordType!OCSC Nonclinical Service Tracking Entry.fields.{team_lead}team_lead'], "firstName")
      & " "
      & user(fv!row['recordType!OCSC Nonclinical Service Tracking Entry.fields.{team_lead}team_lead'], "lastName")
    )
