XRefs, Updating XRefs and Layer Settings

Hi Bricscad community!

I have a drawing A0 referenced into drawing B0. Both drawings share the same layer structure.
B0.dwg:
_layer1
_layer2
A0|_layer1
A0|_layer2

Within drawing B I freeze/hide several layers of drawing A to work with a selected state.
B0.dwg:
_layer1
_layer2
A0|_layer1
A0|_layer2 X

Drawing A0 changes and updates are available as Drawing A1.
Now I want to save drawing B0 as drawing B1, and also update the reference path so it points to A1. But the Xref name is kept as A0.
B1.dwg:
_layer1
_layer2
A0|_layer1 (path now points to A1)
A0|_layer2 (but layer2 is changed back to visible)

Is it possible to preserve a specific xref layer setting accross several Xref rereferencing (i.e. changing xref path but keep xref name)

I hopefully made my useful idea clear.

Thank you!!

Cheers
