Yes, But Be Careful
Using words from the essay question is usually necessary because you need to talk about the topic given. So, of course you are going to use the subject words given. However, be careful not to copy clauses or full sentences because it shows that you have a limited vocabulary or ability. Paraphrasing the question or statement is a good way to start your introduction so practice this skill well.
Remember!
The essay in IELTS Writing Task 2 tests your ability to discuss a given formal topic in a balanced way, with relevant ideas and examples. You should think of your own ideas and not steal too much from the question.
