Not entirely. He was key in starting it however he was not entirely at fault as it was a two-sided conflict.

When it became clear to Lenin that there would be no Western democracy help to the USSR by staging their own workers' revolution, he had to adopt the "Socialism in one country" policy. Stalin took hold of this idea as well. Stalin also adopted Lenin's modernization of Marxism by declaring that imperialism was the highest form of capitalism. To safeguard the Soviet Union, he made it clear that to build socialism in the USSR, there could be no "white gloves". This meant that there would be bloodshed to make Lenin's dream come true. Stalin's policy was to turn the USSR from an agrarian economy into an industrial nation. Only by doing this could guarantee the independence of the USSR as it was encircled by imperialist-capitalist enemies. While few inside the USSR could fault Stalin for this stance, it was Stalin's methods that greatly disturbed the left wing of the party. And, the cult of personality surrounding Stalin began to take shape.
He was more important than Vladimir Lenin in my opinion, but this is an opinional question. Stalin led the USSR ultimately to victory after being invaded in WW2. He successfully kept the country without rebellion or revolt from 1924 to 1953. In April 1929, Stalin implemented the first of the "5 Years Plan" which successfully industrialized the USSR. Stalin also started the Cold War and greatly increased USSR military power and took on half the German Army, with the Allies all together taking on the other half.
