Pretty much the only way to do this would be by having a computer/turtle adjacent to the turtle that you place. You could then wrap it as a peripheral and use the function peripheral_obj.turnOn() (at least I think it's that).
Other than that nope, I do not believe this is possible.

Wrapping isn't strictly required, of course. One can instead use peripheral.call("front", "turnOn") (changing "front" to the side the computer to turn on is on), like any other peripheral method.
