When JOSM uploads a new node (or way, or relation) it saves the ID that the server generates in the file, and thats sent with the object if you modify it locally and upload it again. However one thing that is suggested to do before you upload, especially if some time has passed, is to just download the area in JOSM again, just in case someone else has modified things in the meantime. If there are any conflicts JOSM will prompt you and you can choose which version to keep.
