Can potatoes that have turned green still be used as seed potatoes?

They should be fine for seed use as long as the "eyes" still appear to be trying to sprout and the rest of the potato is still relatively firm. To make sure, just take a few seed pieces, cut them in half, and place the eye end up in a shallow pan of water in a warm, sunny location. They should start growing sprouts in less than a week.
