Illegal substitution question

[KWH]

Are there any rules to prevent a team from first running an offensive play with only ten players on the field and then during the huddle for the next play attempt to deceive the defense by sending the eleventh player (A) into the huddle and making it appear as if they are replacing another player (B). Just as the huddle breaks player B sprints toward the sideline appearing to leave the field but then sets up as a wide receiver.

Yes, NFHS Rule 9-6-4c makes your play illegal!
It is illegal participation:
To use a player, replaced player or substitute in a substitution or pretend substitution to deceive opponents at or immediatly before the snap or free kick.

Illegal Participation 15 yards

That rule pretty much covers all aspects of your play and others like it...
