Box turtles are omnivores. They will eat almost anything, but just because they like it does not mean they should have it. A good rule of thumb when feeding box turtles is to give them only the kinds of things they would find in the wild. They may enjoy dairy products but they are not part of a turtle's natural diet.

No, turtles cannot eat string cheese. Turtles lack the proper enzymes to break down dairy products.

No !... They wouldn't eat cheese as part of their natural diet - so they shouldn't be fed it in captivity !
