Hello,

Stuxnet is a Windows Worm, and SELinux is Mandatory Access Control for Linux

on Linux SELinux can reduce the impact of such worms if targeting Linux boxes, but it is not a preemptive mechanism for not having any kind of compromise due to any vulnerability, Although if you protect your system and targeted processes you may have reach the goal of containing the impact of possible compromises


Best,
