… unless installing A causes a conflict – then the solver is free to use
B instead.
Given that systemd is installed by default in Debian, a "Suggests:
systemd" is unlikely to be useful for anybody, and an A|B recommendation
also is a no-op for the majority of users.
Instead, I would simply Recommend wg-tools, as they're very useful for
querying or modifying its state even when systemd-networkd manages the
interface.
I would also create a virtual "wireguard" package that directly depends
on wireguard-dkms and wireguard-tools (and Recommends:
networkmanager-wireguard, as soon as that exists). Then, simply instruct
the user to install that.
