They already are active suppliers (to an extent) and partners with the rebels in Syria. Turkey is hosting a number of Syrian refugee camps, as well as the Syrian National Council (opposition group) which has its HQ in Istanbul. They're also an important member of the Friends of Syria group, and hosted its second conference in Istanbul to the great annoyance of Syria.
Turkey was raging against al-Assad's actions well before this. They've also presented the idea of creating a buffer zone within Syria to allow humanitarian aid into the country. This, of course, would require a military invasion.
