curl would download the HTML, not the PHP source.

You can use:
<?php include "http://example.com/application/B/source.phpsource";?>

to snag the source code from B and execute it on A.

That's the closest thing to what I think you may be asking... which
I'm not even sure what it is.

The 's' at the end of my URL is not a typo. It assumes that you have
a file named source.phpsource of MIME type text/plain that dumps out
PHP code from Application B. Application A can include and execute
this source code.

This is not a Good Idea (tm) at all if you don't implicitly trust
Application B source code to be completely free of (intentional and
unintentional) malicious/dangerous/buggy code.
