Will RJ45 Pinout A standard communicate with B standard?

Let me clarify this question as I can't seem to track down the answer online. Will an A standard pinout that's been punched down to a patch panel, communicate properly with a B standard cable connected to it?

Very old cables going through the building are finally being redone on one end. B standard is building wide and these cables just so happen to be A standard that I guess was terminated this way long ago. I am unable to re terminate one end as it's unreachable currently which would solve this case immediately and make it the proper building standard. Which leads me to my next solution which would be to go through with the patching and just leave it A standard.
