Do my 15 nights from the Marriott Credit Card count towards that?
Did you read the terms provided in the email or links? Look for something like "paid stays" or "book your rooms". Those would be strong clues that bonus nights do not count. I don't have a Marriott CC, but do their bonus nights post on your anniversary date or a specific date (i.e. in January). Either way, I wouldn't see them giving preference to non-stay credit.
