IAABO says the answer is Yes, and cites 7-5-7.
I say the answer is No. The ball is not awarded at the designated spot closest to the foul, but rather, B’s throw-in is from anywhere along the end line. Citations below.

What say you?

I don't like their answer to this one.
A full reading of 4.19.6 Situation (a) and (b) suggests that sequence matters.
In (a): BI then PCF = 2pts, throw-in anywhere along the end line. 7-5-7.
In (b): PCF then GT = 0pts, designated spot nearest the foul. 7-5-4a.
According to their answer, the official awards 2 points to Team A then also 'penalizes' Team B with a designated spot throw-in.
4.19.6 SITUATION A
B1 obtains a legal position in A1’s path before A1 becomes airborne. A1 jumps and releases the ball on a try for goal. Before returning to the floor, airborne shooter A1 charges into B1. (a) Before the foul by A1, B2 commits basket interference; or (b) after the foul on A1, B2 slaps the ball on its downward flight.
In (a), both the violation and the foul are penalized. The
basket interference by B2 causes the ball to become dead immediately. The violation is penalized by awarding the two points. The player-control foul on A1 is also charged. Team B is awarded the ball for a throw-in anywhere along the end line. A defensive-goaltending or basket-interference violation committed prior to a player-control foul does not contradict the general statement that when a player-control foul occurs that player cannot score. In the case of a defensive violation, it is the violation which results in awarding the score.
In (b), the
ball becomes dead and the try ends immediately when the player-control foul on A1 occurs. The action of B2 is ignored as goaltending cannot occur after the try has ended. The ball is awarded to Team B for a throw-in from a designated spot out of bounds closest to where the foul occurred. (4-12-1, 6-7-4, 6-7-9 EXCEPTION, 7-5-4a, 9-11)
