Is it acceptable to open a modal popup on top of another modal popup? [duplicate]

- Modals on top of modals 3 answers
On the web, is it wise to allow a modal popup (B) to be opened from another modal popup (A)?
If modal popup B were to be closed, the user would again be viewing modal popup A.
I am asking as I can envisage some issues e.g. with dismissing the second popup, if the overlay is clicked do both modals close or just the second one? Would the user think that the first modal has gone or would they know they can return to it by closing the second modal? etc.
Example mockup:
Modal A.
Modal B. Opens when 'button' is clicked in Modal A
