You can turn off the Check Engine light by either disconnecting the battery or by using a code reader to clear the codes. However, if the problem still exists it will come right back on. Instead you should get the code read, find out what the problem is, and fix it. Your local autozone or checker auto parts store will read them for free.

Acura 3.2TL: Brought my 2003 3.2 TL in for an oil change it wasworking fine prior now my TCS light and engine light is on

If it happened right after the oil change, I would take it back there first.
Even if they can't fix it, they need to know about it if you have it fixed somewhere else. They might be on the hook for the repairs.
They could have left something unplugged which would turn on the check engine light. The traction control is affected by the engine performance.

How do I turn off my check engine light on my Acura TL 99

To turn off the check engine light you have to 1.) Have a scan tool capable of reading your cars computer that has an option to clear any codes stored, or 2.) find out what is causing the check engine light to come on and make repairs.

Even if you clear the code which will turn off the check engine light, and there is a persistent issue, then the check engine light will come back on.

Your best bet is to take it to an auto parts store like Autozone and have them use their scan tool to retrieve the stored code and tell you what it indicates. If that information is not helpful to you then post up the code here and I will see what I can come up with for you.
