If anything, the runway is effectively shorter because of the increase in frictional drag in the wheel bearings. In other words, the forward thrust of the propeller(s) has to overcome that additional wheel bearing friction. It's not much, but it's there....

Yeah, it'll take a teeny bit more runway for the plane to take off (as measured from a static point along unmoving ground) on the conveyor belt because of the added friction - but not much.
