The above arrangement can be made by only one instrument only, by creating a life-interest in favour of A, followed by a life interest in favour of B - however there are certain conditions to this. This cannot disturb the rule against perpetuity.
The state accepts that this kind of arrangement is harmful to the property and to the economy, the property should move freely, hence as per the law - you can create as many life interests as possible as long all of them are living at the date of transfer + if made to an unborn person - he/she conceieves before last holder dies.
If you could tell the specific facts - would be able to guide you better

A family trust is the best option.
