It's important to remember that stuttering (the disorder) is different to stuttering (the symptom). While it is 100% possible to develop the disorder, it's quite rare and normally happens after a brain injury or when a neurological condition develops. It is more likely that you're stuttering as a symptom of anxiety, especially if it only happens when you're talking to new people.
