The official inspiration for Warhammer 40,000 was Starship Troopers by Robert Heinlein.

In regards to the Tyranids being inspired by the Xenomorph from Alien (which I actually watched just an hour before seeing your post), the lifecycle for the Xenomorph is as different as Night and Day from Tyranids.

Alien:
Queen lays eggs
Egg hatches to Facehugger
Facehugger implants Embryo
Embryo matures, explodes from host's chest
Grows to full size within hours
??
Profit!

Tyranids exist to consume all genetic material in the universe and do so on a planetary scale
Tyranids:


The appearance of some Tyranids could be inspired by Alien however.
that sound like alien vs preditor the movie
