While that would allow e-file, it would be filing a false tax return. Your W-2 is reporting what actually occurred in 2018 and you cannot change history. Why you report will not match what the employer reported and the difference between your W-2 box a and box 3 will not be accounted for in box 12. That could be a big red audit frag to the IRS. I would not file a false W-2 just to bypass a TurboTax bug.
