I'm a research fellow on a J1 visa, my DS2019 exchange visitor category is as a "Research Scholar." I was in the US for >11 months during 2018. Am I a tax non/resident?

State tax filing
J1 scholars are considered non-residents for the first 2 or 5 years of their education program. (I forget which and I'm too lazy to look it up. Your school's international student office should be able to help.)
Turbotax does not prepare a 1040-NR non-resident return. You will need to find another tax preparer or software company.
