You could do it that way or you could just transfer the zone between the
views on you machine after you have transfered the zone from your friend.

View A is the view notifies for the zone would normally reach.

key transfer-key { .... };
key notify-key { .... };

view A {
	match-clients { key transfer-key; !key notify-key; ... };
	server 127.0.0.1 {
		keys notify-key;
	};
	zone "example" {
		type slave;
		file "slaves/A/example";
		allow-transfer { key transfer-key; };
		notify explict;
		also-notify { 127.0.0.1; };
		masters { .....; };
	};
};

view B {
	match-clients { !key transfer-key; key notify-key; ... };
	zone "example" {
		type slave;
		file "slaves/B/example";
		masters { 127.0.0.1 key transfer-key; };
	};
};
