Answer
Dear Scott,
thank you for your question.
I wouldn't recommend it, the two species have completely different habitats and both need a lot of room by themselves. The turtles also need to hibernate, while the water dragon needs stable temperatures all year round. Turtles very often carry salmonella and are aggressive enough to hurt the dragon if it bathes in the water.
I hope I was of some help to you
