Well, by that logic, did The Big Bang Theory qualify when Leonard imagined Sheldon reproducing through mitosis? Or Scrubs qualify for a Hugo every time J.D. imagined himself in a sci-fi setting?

I'm not sure about
The Wonder Years, as I was never into that series, but in the case of
The Big Bang Theory example and J.D.'s imaginations on
Scrubs, those were not the basis for full episodes (with the exception of
Scrubs "My Princess," and that episode was, well, in a word, bad).
In the case of
The Big Bang Theory, maybe if Leonard's imagined Sheldon reproducing through mitosis
and spent the episode following them as they both reproduced again and eventually overwhelmed the Earth with Sheldons it would qualify.
What you're saying is equivalent to saying that
Inception was not science fiction
