It's not straight forward for XML export/import.

you will have to run a script for this either one time schedule job or fix script

Sample below

createUserRoles();

function createUserRoles(){

var gr = new GlideRecord('sys_user_has_role');

gr.addQuery('user', 'userASysId');

gr.query();

while(gr.next()){

var gr1 = new GlideRecord('sys_user_has_role');

gr1.initialize();

gr1.user = 'userB SysId';

gr1.role = gr.role;

gr1.insert();

}

}
