The solution provided by GGAnderson did return an error message. Using it inside mutate() however worked fine.

df <- structure(list(A = c(56L, NA, NA, 67L, NA),
                     B = c(75L, 45L, 77L, 41L, 65L),
                     Year = c(1921L, 1921L, 1922L, 1923L, 1923L)),
                .Names = c("A", "B", "Year"), 
                class = "data.frame", 
                row.names = c(NA, -5L))
df
df%>% 
  coalesce(A,B) #returns error

df %>%
mutate(A = coalesce(A,B)) #works
