You want to search for "bbbbb nnnnnn", but you don't want to use an if condition. How else can you search for that pattern ?

Code:
$
$ cat -n f3
     1  aaaa bbbbb nnnnnn ttttt
     2  xxxx nnnnnn bbbbb ttttt
     3  cccc bbbbb nnnnnn ppppp
     4  dddd ccccc nnnnnn ttttt
     5  ffff bbbbb oooooo ttttt
$
$ perl -i.bkup -pe 's/ttttt/ppppp/ if /bbbbb/ && /nnnnnn/' f3
$
$ cat -n f3
     1  aaaa bbbbb nnnnnn ppppp
     2  xxxx nnnnnn bbbbb ppppp
     3  cccc bbbbb nnnnnn ppppp
     4  dddd ccccc nnnnnn ttttt
     5  ffff bbbbb oooooo ttttt
$
$

Note that since you are not checking for the order of those two strings, a line that has "nnnnnn" to the left of "bbbbb" will also be affected (line # 2 for example).
