Each tax year is a separate tax return, they cannot be combined.
Tax returns are what you file. Tax refunds are what you receive if your total tax payments and credits are greater than your total tax liability.
The TurboTax online editions are only for tax year 2020. You cannot file a 2020 tax return until early January if you have received all of your W-2's and Form 1099's from employers and other financial institutions or from your state.
To complete and file a 2019 tax return using TurboTax you would need to purchase, download and install on a personal computer one of the 2019 desktop editions from this website - https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/past-years-products/
A 2019 tax return can only be printed and mailed, it cannot be e-filed.
Do you mean receive your REFUNDS at the same time? No. You have to file each year separately! Online is only for 2020.

You will need a full Windows or Mac computer to install it on.
You will have to print and mail 2019 and earlier now. When you mail a tax return, you need to attach any documents showing tax withheld, such as your W-2’s or any 1099’s. Use a mailing service that will track it, such as UPS or certified mail so you will know the IRS received the return. Don’t forget state.
Important! Mail Federal and State in separate envelopes and mail each year in separate envelopes.
OR If you want to file for free you can fill out the forms by hand. Here are some basic forms…..

Since you are late to to file your 2019 return, when the 2020 software asks for your 2019 AGI use "zero" because the IRS does not have an AGI in the system for you. If using zero does not work and let you e-file 2020, you will have to print, sign and mail your 2020 return. Do NOT try to mail it in the same envelope you use for the 2019 return.
