Can I e-file an individual extension in the Turbotax Download for PC software?

Hi, can I e-file an individual extension in the Turbotax Download for PC software? In the software I only see an option to print and mail the extension.  If not, why is this the case?  I can e-file the actual return but not the extension?

To e-file a federal extension request go to this TurboTax website - https://turbotax.intuit.com/irs-tax-extensions/

It will pop up a prompt about buying the product (again) but there is a "no Thanks" button that take you on to submitting the extension form with the IRS.
