Yes.: Though rare, it is possible for kidney stones to become retained in the bladder and become larger, hard, bladder stones. Stones that can pass through a ureter can generally pass through the bladder outlet, but certain conditions, such as prostate enlargement or a neurogenic bladder, can predispose someone to forming bladder stones.

Yes: Can get stuck at lower end of ureter, which is in the bladder. Can get stuck at bladder neck in boys or men as well as women with a contracted bladder neck. Can also get stuck in an intravesical ureterocele or diverticulum.

Yes, but.....: Yes. If it's big enough, it could stay in the bladder, but a stone that size is unlikely to pass through the ureter into the bladder.
