Adding specific rules for merging books

I have a 2 sets of books, one with a specific tag and the other without it in the same library. I want to set the auto merge in such a way that it would ignore the added book if the duplicate is in the tagged set but overwrites if it isn't. Is there any way to do it?

Id adjust merge settings and use a second library:
Library A: Original
Library B: Temp setup


* Move set 2 without tags to B, delete from A
* Configure merge settings
* Move B to A using merge settings, deleting from B

End result 1 set of tagged books.
(anyone else can correct me if my logic is off)
