Not really if they are different. What matters is the content, what CC
is instructing Squid to do.
This goes for Cache-Control: header in both the request AND reply.
If either contains no-store, private, no-cache, must-revalidate, or a
maxage < the stored object age Squid is forced to re-fetch and replace
the relevant objects.

In that case ... that trace is clearly showing that A is storing its own
object and B is storing another, the request for A in the middle
replaces the original A object leaving the B one present. Then the
followup B replaces the original B object leaving the A one present.
Vary storing itself seems to be working, but something else is causing
the variants to be replace on each of their requests. This smells more
like a Cache-Control problem.
