Yes. But please make sure ALL parts of turkey is cooked to 165 degree F. Check multiple locations (thigh, breast, etc.) If there were any bacteria in turkey and grew during the time your oven was off, another round of cooking should kill them.

All the bacteria are dead between 130 and 140. No need to overcook your Turkey. Every published scientific paper confirms this.
