No -- the penalties if the players come off the bench and fight are different from the penalties if the players come off the bench and don't fight.
If the players come off the bench and fight, 10-4-1h applies -- each is charged with a flagrant T, ejected and the team foul total increased for each flagrant T. In our example, that's 4 for A and 2 for B. The head coach also gets an indirect for each of these -- so coach A is ejected and B remains (assuming he hasn't received / doesn't receive another T). Two throws are shot for each T that's not offset -- so B will get 4 throws.
If the players come off the bench and don't fight, 10-4-4 applies. Each player gets a flagrant and is ejected, but only one T is administered and charged indirectly to the head coach. Each team total increases by 1. Since the number of players doesn't offset, B will shoot the throws for 1 T (2 throws). This will happen whether A has 3, or 4, or 10 players off the bench (as long as they don't participate).
