What do you exactly mean with an "instruction"? A processor instruction?

If I've understood what you intend, I will produce a system where nios_a sends data to a peripheral (can be a simple PIO), which is then read by nios_b (can be also be a PIO, possibly using a IRQ) and then nios_b decodes the parallel data read from nios_a and executes that instruction (or intended C function).
