need a component change to trigger an assignee change

Question

Currently using JIRA 4.1.

SCENARIO:  ISSUE-1234 created with component A and auto assigns to component lead A.  It's determined the issue is assigned the incorrect component.  Issue is edited and assigned component B and needs to be assigned to component lead B.

Is it possible to have the assignee field update automatically to component lead B when the update event is triggered?
