No, Roth contributions do not include conversions. Roth contributions and conversions are treated as distinct, separate transactions with different rules. Contributions are limited by annual income/amount caps, while conversions involve moving pre-tax money to a Roth account, which is not subject to annual contribution limits.
TurboTax requires your cumulative Roth IRA contributions to track your "basis" (the total amount of after-tax money put in) to determine if any current-year, non-qualified withdrawals are subject to taxes or penalties. It also helps identify excess contributions, which can incur a 6% penalty if not corrected.
See this TurboTax blog article for more information about Roth IRA withdrawal rules and penalties.
