Two similar PCI cards, same parent and dependency

Hello Everyone!

I have issue with PCI cards, I can't connect to two different VM's because I have message that device is already in use. I think that is connected to parent and dependency. Is there a possibility to change that information for those cards? If yes, how can I do that?
