Can you put a race into decline on the turn you pick it?

The designer said declining needs an active race at the start of a turn, which fits the rulebook's first-turn sequence.

No, unless the race has Stout. A newly picked race must conquer on its first turn, and declining needs an active race at the start of a later turn. Only Stout can expand and decline in the same turn.
