I live abroad and want to know: will turbotax be able to attach the notice for the automatic 2 month extension to my return when I file?

Yes, TurboTax will be able to attach the statement.

Please not:

We accept credit, debit, and pre-paid cards with a Visa, MasterCard, American Express, or Discover logo. Like many other U.S. online merchants, we can only process cards with a U.S. billing address.

If you do not have a US billing address, perhaps you have a friend or relative in the US that could assist you.

When you do file your return by June 17th,  you need to attach a statement to your return explaining that you are eligible for the 2 month extension. 

In the search box at the top of the screen, type in extension, filing, additional and click on the Jump to link.  Click yes, you want to apply for an extension and answer the questions about preparing the 2 month extension statement.  As TurboTax states, this statement will be included with your return.
