Options involve:
- Rednet. By far the easiest.
- Disk drives. Turtles may write data to a floppy disk that another turtle can then read.
- Redstone. Turtles may pulse signals to each other, along the lines of eg morse code.
Treating another turtle as a peripheral is
not an option, at least, not for this particular purpose. While they can be wrapped, you can do little more this way than to start/restart them.

Disk drive would be the only viable option here really, since he want's his turtle to deploy and program others. The turtle would have to be pre-configured to react to rednet or redstone.
