Yes, if the turbo seals are shot, oil will get into the turbine housing and burn and oil will get into the compressor housing and neatly distribute itself all over your intercooler piping and intercooler.

Now when you ran the motor without coolant I'm guessing the turbo took the brunt of it. Seeing how turbo's get so hot its not even funny, so without coolant cooling it, the bearings will be destroyed in short order.
