I propose a syntax below to meet the requirement,
excute first STEP008 then excute STEP004
//JOBCARD
//STEP001 EXEC PGM=IEBEDIT
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUT1 DD DSN=path of your JCL,DISP=SHR
//SYSUT2 DD SYSOUT=(A,INTRDR)
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
EDIT TYPE=INCLUDE,STEPNAME=(STEP008)
/*
//*
//STEP002 EXEC PGM=IEBEDIT
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSUT1 DD DSN=path of your JCL,DISP=SHR
//SYSUT2 DD SYSOUT=(A,INTRDR)
//SYSPRINT DD SYSOUT=*
//SYSIN DD *
EDIT TYPE=INCLUDE,STEPNAME=(STEP004)
