A is completely natural!
B should be 2 seperate sentences.
"I wonder... Should I tell her about it?" You are wondering, and then asking yourself if you should or should not.
The phrase "I wonder..." sort of works like と思います, the way it almost quotes another sentence

@kyanitedragon great! Thank you. "if" is necessary. And "I wonder" can be used like "like". Arigato!
