Does the user need to edit the ticket when it is in queue B?
If not, then there should be no problem.

If so, the easiest way might be to create two custom fields with
the same name, and apply one to queue A (read/write) and the
other to queue B (read only). Then write a queue change scrip
that copies the value from one CF to another when the queue
changes.
