Welcome... And no. You cannot do that. Please plan your build and the parts you plan to use carefully. If you don't understand how turbochargers work, please look at the Forced Induction FAQs that are "stickied" at the top of the forum..

do you have to have oil lines to the turbo or can you just plug the hole on the bottom and fill it with oil

sure you can. make sure you stick your hand in the compressor housing with the engine running to make sure the blades are spinning freely. report back with your findings.

because they might be spinning so fast it looks like they're not spinning at all. best to make sure with your hands.

a larger turbo might not even spin on initial start up, especially with no downpipe

Yes just plug the oil holes. Put just the turbo and "header" on then put a block off plate on the wastegate hole. And ENJOY
