It's not possible with NetworkManager - the policies the daemon uses are quite inflexible. The only way you can influence this is to set some connections as 'never default' (which sucks when the cable connection is not present) or change the timestamp on wireless connection B so it is newer than A and NM will prefer it.

It also tries to keep as many 'connect automatically' connections up as possible so the 'disable wireless when connected to cable' idea is not possible. Sorry. Please try and convince NM to add client policy control and then I'lll implement it in the KDE UI.
