A 6502B/C should be ok in place of a 6502A, since they are all clocked externally the higher spec chip will still run at the same speed as the 6502A.
You may also find that a bog standard 6502 will run in place of a 6502A .. it's just being overclocked from 1Mhz to 2Mhz ;-) This is more likely to work on chips with later date codes as construction techniques improved.
