No. If you want to get rid of your turtle see if any local reptile stores are willing to take it or know of anyone who might adopt it. absolutely not it will not survive, Take it to a local shelter if it's not wanted, Give it to someone who will honestly take care of it.It probably wouldnt know how to survive out there because it hasnt been wild. That would depend on how long it's been in captivity. If it has been in a cage it's entire life then no. Give him to a pet store or a friend. If it has had experience in the wild then yes. Find a local river, pond or lake in which you can set him/her free.

Have a great day and good luck! Please don't' do that. Call your local animal league or something similar and they can give you some suggestions. Why not ask a friend or neighbor to take it. We put two turtles into a pond at a friends acreage, they have been there now for about 10 years, they hibernate in the mud in the winter and come out every summer to lay on the logs and eat whatever it is they are eating. they have grown huge so something must be going right. This all depends on the climate of the place you intend to release them into. Really cold winters are not a good idea. aNIMALS THAT ARE RAISED AS PETS TO NOT HAVE THE KNOW HOW TO SURVIVE IN THE WILD. PBS just re-aired a special on reptiles showing that pet turtles released into the "wild" very often carry disease that destroys the wild turtle population.

Please take it to a shelter.
