Yes, the IRS will accept either.

According to the IRS:

Taxpayers or Tax Professionals can use certain private delivery services designated by the IRS to meet the "timely mailing as timely filing/paying" rule for tax returns and payments. These private delivery services include only the following:

The link is for the acceptable carriers. The mailing addresses would be different since the carriers are not allowed to deliver to a PO Box.

My Turbo Tax documents says I shuld post the return to IRS, Fresno CA xxxxx-xxxx but the link you sent has this address 5045 East Butler Avenue, Fresno, CA 93727. Which one should I use if I am sending my documents via Fedex overnight services..?

You would use the 5045 address. There are 5 offices. Each has a PO Box for use when mailing through the U.S.P.S. and a street addresses for all other acceptable carriers. Please use the east Butler address for FedEx.
