Yes, set the 617 to #1 TDC and mark the crank/flexplate with a small punch (not an ink marker).

You don't need to know #1 TDC for the 240 flywheel. The machine shop will find the heavy point and use it as a base point to match balance.
EDIT: Also, you don't need the torque converter to balance. The TC is neutrally balanced on it's own.
