I wouldn't be surprised if the reverse-engineered concept for Conficker was utilized in creating Stuxnet, if an exploit works there's certainly nothing to stop it from being reused. Saying that Conficker was used to get Stuxnet in is like saying Yahoo's search engine was used to make Google. Certainly concepts are copied, there's no reason not to copy them, but my bet's that Stuxnet was created from scratch.
