What stops you from setting mailbox B as the source for mailbox A?
If you do that, then the conditions you set for A apply only to mails
that are shown in B.
You can have multiple source mailboxes for smart mailboxes, those being
either true mailboxes, combo mailboxes or smart mailboxes.

Is it possible to set up a condition for smart mailbox A that will
catch all messages that are in smart mailbox B, without just copying
all the conditions for B over to A? Copying them over requires
manually keeping the two sets of conditions identical; if I make a
change to B I have to remember to make the same change to A.
In other words, I'd like to be able to have a condition on A that says
"is included in B" along with the usual conditions like "is from
such-and-such address," "is unread," etc.
(I believe that if B is a submailbox of A I can just check the box on
A's Mailboxes tab that says "Include messages in any submailboxes of
this mailbox"? But I'm wondering if there's a way to do it when B is
not a submailbox of A.) (Also I find that checkbox a bit
counterintuitive, since the mailboxes listed on that tab are the ones
to which the conditions will be applied; listing them there doesn't
mean that the messages in them will automatically be included whether
or not the conditions match. But that seems to be what the checkbox
means for submailboxes. The checkbox would be more intuitive to me on
the Conditions tab.)
Thanks for any help!
