No, unless that touch knocked the ball to the floor.

I doesn't have to be knocked to the floor for A1 to lose player control and therefore regain the right to dribble again. For A1 to lose player control, he would just have to not be holding or dribbling a live ball inbounds. If B1 knocked the ball completely out of A1's hands, even if it was straight up in the air, A1 could then recover and dribble again.

You don't have player control if you fumble, but you can't dribble, fumble, dribble can you?
