Then my 'clever' assumption is not clever no more and we need to identify the 'line' by some other means. Did you say the pattern 'Y Y N N'? It's not going to appear in any other lines? It doesn't matter where it appears on a line?
Code:
nawk -v p='Y Y N N' 'FNR==NR{f2[FNR]=$0;next}{print $0 (($0~p)?OFS f2[++c]:"")}' file2 file1
