No , the lockup convertor is splined different so it wouldn't even go on the trans.

Is reverse working ?

Is his TV linkage adjusted correctly ?

Does it even have TV linkage ?

The converter has nothing to do with shifting.

If it does the same thing with two different transmissions, suspect the TP linkage. Try temporarily disconnecting the linkage to see if it will then shift to 3rd.
