No I dont think it could. It could give you the smell of oil since missing turbo rings could let out blowby vapor. But, even that would probably not happen since air is being sucked in at that point.
Replace your turbo seal rings! Otherwise, unfiltered air is going into your engine which can seriously damage it over time.
