I can’t think of any reason why I couldn’t remove the backbone and keel bone prior to brining. Just plan in ahead to save a little time on Thursday.

Yup. Everything done ahead is... done.
We do it with chickens but have never tried a turkey.
We'll be at family on Thursday but I did a meal yesterday. I broke down the bird and cooked the parts separately ala advice from seriouseats.com . Super successful!
