after search i found that maven assembly plugin have dependencySets configuration that can include dependency to it .when add include in assembly.xml solve problem 

 <dependencySets>
    <dependencySet>
        <outputDirectory>/</outputDirectory>
        <unpack>true</unpack>
        <includes>
            <include>project:A:jar</include>
        </includes>
    </dependencySet>
</dependencySets>
