You can use profiles to achieve the desired behavior:

<build>
    <plugins>
        <plugin>
            <groupId>org.apache.maven.plugins</groupId>
            <artifactId>maven-resources-plugin</artifactId>
            <version>2.5</version>
            <executions>
                <execution>
                    <id>log4j</id>
                    <phase>process-resources</phase>
                    <goals>
                        <goal>copy-resources</goal>
                    </goals>
                    <configuration>
                        <outputDirectory>output_directory</outputDirectory>
                        <resources>
                            <resource>${log4j.file}</resource>
                        </resources>
                    </configuration>
                </execution>
            </executions>
        </plugin>
    </plugins>
</build>

<profiles>
    <profile>
        <id>dev</id>
        <activation>
            <activeByDefault>true</activeByDefault>
        </activation>
        <properties>
            <log4j.file>path_to_file_A</log4j.file>
        </properties>
    </profile>
    <profile>
        <id>prod</id>
        <properties>
            <log4j.file>path_to_file_B</log4j.file>
        </properties>
    </profile>
</profiles>
