That's an extreme example, and no, Russia could not.
The use of force is justified in defending national borders, but usually a clear and imminent threat is required to resort to such drastic measures.
Two jets passing through the tip of Turkey for 17 seconds, making no threat to Turkey is not enough to shoot them down.
Turkey should be reprimanded, not defended.
Consider this, "In 2005, Turkey entered Greek airspace 1,017 times, or as often as 40 times a day," according to a WikiLeaks document.
Perhaps Greece should start blowing Turkish jets out of the sky when Turkey violates Greece's airspace.
