Yes. You may want to contact your mortgage lender to see if any of the property taxes paid at closing are included on your 1098. If the additional property taxes paid at closing were not included on your 1098, then you can just add the 2 amounts together and report one total under the property taxes section in TurboTax.
As long as you actually paid these property taxes during the 2016 tax year, you will be able to deduct the full amount as an itemized deduction on your income taxes.
