Assume that a shape(x) is present inside a container(Y). From container(Y) we can get the shape(x) from the shapes contained in it. Is it possible to retrieve the container(Y) shape from the shape(x) in Visio2010?

You might check this post by David Parker. He has a routine that lists where things are and is probably modifiable.
