It can, but the turkey will probably not be very tasty. By wrapping the bird in foil, you will end up steaming it instead of roasting it; the latter method, which involves exposing the turkey to the direct heat of the oven, will bring out the most flavor in the meat. Some people put a "tent" of aluminum foil over the bird for the first hour or so of cooking, to prevent the skin from becoming too dark. In addition, you can use foil to line the roasting pan to keep it clean.

If you have used a foil tent from the start of roasting, it's recommended to brown the breast skin by removing the foil for the last 30 minutes of predicted roasting time.

For most of the time when cooking, a foil tent prevents the skin from over browning. To get that golden color to the bird, remove the tent about 30 minutes before the bird is done.
