I filed for an extension for 2017 that is due by the end of the day. Is there a way to complete my 2017 tax return using turbotax?

Do you mean 2016? What makes you think it is due today (Dec 31, 2017)?

I mean taxes due for income made in 2016... the tax that would have been due April 15, 2017

An extension for tax year 2017 would be valid until October 2018, so you must mean an extension for tax year 2016 which you filed during calendar year 2017 on or before April 18, 2017.  The deadline for filing a 2016 tax return with extension was October 16, 2017.  Unless you lived in one of the states affected by a Federally declared disaster, then the deadline to file a 2016 tax return with extension is January 31, 2018.

See this TurboTax support FAQ for completing a prior year tax return started with the online editions - https://ttlc.intuit.com/questions/2559403-how-do-i-finish-a-prior-year-return-that-i-started-in-turb...

If you did not start a tax return using TurboTax then go to this website to purchase a download of the 2016 desktop editions  - https://turbotax.intuit.com/personal-taxes/past-years-products/

A 2016 tax return can only be printed and mailed, it cannot be e-filed.

and the extension is only for filing. Any taxes due that were not paid in April are subject to interest and penalties.
