As already suggested by Michael, you could do the merging in one step 
and then apply your existing code to the merged document. Using XSLT 1.0 
you need the exsl:node-set function:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" 
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform";
  xmlns:exsl="http://exslt.org/common"; exclude-result-prefixes="exsl">
<xsl:output indent="yes"/>

<xsl:param name="doc2-uri" select="'file2.xml'"/>
<xsl:variable name="doc2" select="document($doc2-uri)"/>

<xsl:variable name="merge-doc">
  <Move-Afile>
    <Afile>
      <xsl:copy-of select="//Item"/>
      <xsl:copy-of select="$doc2//Item"/>
    </Afile>
  </Move-Afile>
</xsl:variable>

        <xsl:template match="@*|node()">
            <xsl:copy>
                <xsl:apply-templates select="@*|node()"/>
            </xsl:copy>
        </xsl:template>

        <xsl:template match="text()" priority="5"/>

        <xsl:template match="PackNumber/@level">
        <xsl:choose>
       <xsl:when test="not(preceding::PackNumber/@level =.)">
       <xsl:element name="counter">
       <xsl:attribute name="level">
       <xsl:value-of 
select="count(preceding::PackNumber/@level[not(preceding::PackNumber/@level= 
.)])+1"/>
       </xsl:attribute>
       </xsl:element>
       </xsl:when>
       <xsl:otherwise>
       <xsl:element name="counter">
       <xsl:attribute name="level">
       <xsl:value-of 
select="count(preceding::PackNumber[not(preceding::PackNumber/@level= 
.)])"/>
       </xsl:attribute>
       </xsl:element>
       </xsl:otherwise>
        </xsl:choose>

             <PNumber>
                <xsl:value-of select="."/>
            </PNumber>
        </xsl:template>

    <xsl:template match="/">
        <A>
            <target>
                <xsl:apply-templates 
select="exsl:node-set($merge-doc)//Item"/>
            </target>
        </A>
    </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
