Java: force annotation near another annotation on compile time

Is there any way to force an annotation on another annotation on compile time?

My goal is to force "Programmer B" whenever he/she declares an annotation, to declare another annotation

So following the example below, if programmer B, declared above a method Annotation1, he must declare beneath or above it, Annotation2

code example:

@Annotation1
@Annotation2
public void method(){}

Is this even possible?

You can make your own annotation like this:

@Annotation1
@Annotation2
public @interface CustomAnnotation {
}

And then use @CustomAnnotation combining two of annotations
