Splunk Search

Is there any way to use all returned values under a certain field in a search?

Let's say I have a multivalue fieldA and a fieldB. I know you can do something like "| where field=value" in a search or just have it in the first part of the search arguments, but is it possible to do something for where I use all returned values part of fieldA as the search for fieldB?

Are you looking for a subsearch so that your main search will look for fieldB="any of field A" values?

index=bla... [ 
  search index=find_values_of_fieldA 
  | stats values(fieldA) as fieldB
  | format ]
