With this plot, I can easily to compare the autocorrelation (e.g. sill, range & nugget) of A and B.  I tried the following two commond, but it failed.

Yes, compose incrementally using base plot:

a = variogram(A~1,data)
b = variogram(B~1,data)
plot(gamma ~ dist, a, pch = 19)
points(gamma ~ dist, b, pch = 20) # use another pch!
lines(variogramLine(vgm_a, max(a$gamma)))
lines(variogramLine(vgm_b, max(a$gamma), col = 2))

in the plot() command you probably want to specify xlim and ylim in
order to have (0,0) as the plot origin.
