Yes, both chickens and turkey's can and do fly although they do not fly high or far. Many chickens are wing clipped when they are young but they are all capable of limited flights.
Wild turkey's use flight to escape predators but the turkeys raised for meat on farms are often too heavy for any real spectacular flights.
