I made a big wooden tank for my Russian tortoise and Eastern box turtle.... but not sure if they can be together

They cannot. They need totally different housing conditions, and eat completely different foods. They are also behaviorally incompatible and the disease risk is off the charts.

Each of them need their own enclosure.
