I want to define sans to A.ttf, and if A.ttf is unavailable, B.ttf will be
used. So the question is, how to test whether a font is available? Or is it
possible to provide a list of candidates (e.g.,
\definefontsynonym[sans][name:A.ttf;name:B.ttf])?

you can do something
\doiffontpresentelse{A} {
\definefontsynonym[sans][A]
} {
\definefontsynonym[sans][B]
}
i guess that this also works
\expanded{\definefontsynonym[sans][\doiffontpresentelse{A}{A}{B}]}
