No, I don't think it does. JOSM will remember that if for example you
had to modify a way to resolve the conflict that it has already
downloaded that way, so re-redownloading doesn't undo your conflict
resolution.

So I think you download + fix conflicts repeatedly until there are no
conflicts shown. Might be worth waiting for the other guy to finish
whatever they are doing if you are bumping into repeated conflicts
though!

Cheers,
Andy
