Many modern CAD/3D modeling tools actually do support Google Earth format (KML/KMZ) and can be used to import this type of content to be used in new or existing projects. AutoCAD is no exception in this can certainly allows kml to dwg conversion, but it is certianly possible that other similar tools can help you out as well. Sometimes KML/KMZ plugin is needed.

The tables with software actions are a good pointer for what a certain program does with various file types and often may give users a good hint how to perform certain file conversion, for example the above-mentioned kml to dwg. However, it is not perfect and sometimes can show results which are not really usable because of how certain programs work with files and the possible conversion is thus actually not possible at all.

DWG
Files with dwg extension are used for the original CAD format originally introduced in Autodesk AutoCAD. The latest version of DWG format is usuaually proprietary and can only be created in AutoCAD. Other CAD programs can usually import it but not create its proprietary form. Because of this, DWGs are often exported to DXF interchange format so that they can be seamlessly used in other CAD programs.
