No, TurboTax does not get any information about a mailed in return.  The IRS or State does not acknowledge when they receive your mailed in returns.  The following is from the IRS

 

Mailed paper returns: If you filed a paper return, please allow 4 weeks before checking the status. Refund processing time is 6 to 8 weeks from the date the IRS receives your tax return.

 

You can checked the IRS website Where's My Refund for your Federal information?
