Yes, a mature B cell can produce an epitope-specific antibody first and then switch to make an antibody against a different epitope.
Effector B cells can start secreting antibodies when they are still tiny lymphocytes, but the giant plasma cell that forms at the conclusion of their maturation process is able to secrete antibodies at an astounding pace of roughly 2000 molecules per second. B-cells can undergo receptor editing- a process to become antigen-specific and produce antibodies against different epitope with the help of T-cells.
A native or memory B cell multiplies and differentiates into an effector cell that secretes antibodies when it is activated by an antigen (with the help of a helper T cell). Such cells produce and secrete large amounts of soluble antibodies, which have the same specific antigen-binding site as the cell-surface antibodies that previously served as the antigen receptor. And it does the same for producing antibodies against a different antigen epitopes.
