I'm not quite sure if I did get your question right, but you answered
the question yourself.

include("anyfile.php"); does nothing more then "copy" the code of
anyfile.php to the file, in which it is called. anyfile.php is
interpreted as HTML, so you should have your <?php brackets around the
document.

A.php-----------
function foo($bar) {
//do sth
}

B.php-----------
include[_once]("A.php");

$x = "anything you like";
$whatever = foo($x);


this works if A and B are in exactly the same directory, otherwise you
should change the path for the include call.

Did I get your question right?
