I don't know.

Some key/certificate repositories don't allow to export private keys.
Maybe there is a PKCS11 plug-in for OpenSSL to access the keystore.
If this is the case, you don't have to export your private key.  But
again, I don't know.

Running stunnel in client or server mode makes no difference
w.r.t. certificate and key files.  As long as stunnel is not able to
access your private key, the client mode won't work either.
