I have and still show conceptual work in a portfolio.
I've played both angles when presenting the work - i usually gauge the interviewer and/or client when deciding whether or not to reveal if it's conceptual or didn't make the final cut.
If i decide not to talk about it then I leave it at that. If I do i'll be upfront and tell them right away this piece was not selected by the client but I felt strongly about it so continued to develop it for the following reasons: blah blah.
I think it's always appropriate to show your best work in your portfolio, whether or not a client signed off on it or not. However, I think you can (and should be) selective about the way you present those pieces.
