Personally I'd still remove the turf.

Cut the grass really low then turn the turfs upside down and put them back in and fill up with soil!

Previous question
if the bed is deep enough then the soil will kill the grass and you wont have to lift it. I would think at least 6 " of soil as a minimum depth.
