My HDHP and HSA were set up through my new employer, and I started work in February 2019. I was fully covered by my parents' HDHP for all months of 2018, so am wondering if I can contribute my max $3,450 for 2018 to my HSA before the April 17th (I am in MA which gets an extension) deadline

Were you able to be claimed as a dependent in 2018? It does not matter if you actually were, but only that you were able to be claimed as a dependent.
If so, then you could not make HSA contributions in 2018, because dependents are not eligible to do so, regardless of their HDHP coverage.
