We filed jointly—primary had income, secondary had none. While filing, TurboTax requested the secondary taxpayer’s AGI, put the AGI amount and get rejected. Can the secondary put 0 instead?

If you filed a joint return for 2023, the AGI is the same for each spouse.  Use the amount from line 11 of your 2023 Form 1040.    It does not matter that your spouse had no income.  On a joint return, the AGI is the same for each spouse.
