No. Re-lending and naked shorting are nothing alike.
Actually my example kinda sucked. What's more likely to happen is that B borrows the stock from A, then sells it to C.
C then lends the share to D.
C doesn't know or care that the share was already borrowed once, and the only way to prevent re-lending it that way would be to make shares non-fungible, which would break more-or-less everything (then again maybe that's your goal).
