Please explain what you are trying to do. What do you mean by "my completed 2018 and 2019 tax returns?" Completed how? Completed where? TurboTax can only e-file returns prepared using TurboTax software. No, you cannot send them to TT to "fill out."
I downloaded the forms from the IRS web page and filled it out.
Profit Loss business 2018, 2019
1040 individual tax returns 2018, 2019
self-employment tax 2018, 2019
additional income and adjustments to income 2018, 2019
Do I need to fill 1099, 2018, 2019
You cannot transfer any of that into TurboTax. If you want to use TT, you go through the screens and enter your data by using the entry screens.
Each tax year has to be filed separately using the forms for the specific tax year. They cannot be combined in any way--do not even put them in the same envelope when you mail them. Software for past years is available back to 2016. Any earlier years can only be prepared on paper forms by hand--and those refunds have been forfeited now.
The current online program can only be used for a 2019 return--no other year. And if you did not file a 2018 return you will have trouble e-filing 2019. When it asks for your 2018 AGI try using zero. If zero does not work then you have to print, sign and mail 2019.
Online preparation and e-filing for 2018 is permanently closed.
To file a return for a prior tax year
If you need to prepare a return for 2016, 2017, or 2018 you can purchase and download desktop software to do it, then print, sign, and mail the return(s)

Remember to prepare your state return as well—if you live in a state that has a state income tax.
When you mail a tax return, you need to attach any documents showing tax withheld, such as your W-2’s or any 1099’s. Use a mailing service that will track it, such as UPS or certified mail so you will know the IRS/state received the return.
Note: The desktop software you need to prepare the prior year return must be installed/downloaded to a full PC or Mac. It cannot be used on a mobile device.
If you are getting a refund, there is not a penalty for filing past the deadline. If you owe taxes, the interest/penalties will be calculated by the IRS based on how much you owe and when they receive your return and payment. The IRS will bill you for this; it will not be calculated by TurboTax.
