Yes, the Romans had complete control of present day Turkey by 129 BC and kept it for roughly another 300 years. However it was not called Turkey, its modern name. In Roman times it was part of the Roman province of Asia.

Yes they did. They intervened in a civil war between pretenders to the throne of the dying Seleucid Empire and took over Syria in 67 BC.
