Using wine-1.5.22, you'll need to workaround bug 27991, and install dotnet40 with winetricks. The installer will then work fine.
Try to start it, and you'll get 3 errors on start about the update service not working. The relevant turbotax help links: http://turbotax.intuit.com/support/iq/Update-Product/Error-5639--Can-t-Confi... http://turbotax.intuit.com/support/iq/Connectivity-Errors/Error-5640--Can-t-...
