A single module -- yes.
but the first child of the difference should not be specified in the child.

oneobject.
Did you just want to combine them into a single module so that only one
command was needed elsewhere?
$fn=16;
module thingy(){
difference()
{
cube([5,5,5], center=true);
#cylinder(d=1.5, h=12, center=true); // part A
}
cylinder(d=1, h=15, center=true); // part B
}
for(r = [0:60:360]){
rotate([0,0,r]) translate([20,0,0]) thingy();
}
