Why ?  Why can't they finish their branch and merge them too ?
Why are they working on branches if they don't need to isolate themselves
from the trunk ?

Start new branches up the trunk and merge the old branches into them.

    cvs commit                  # to oldbranch
    cvs update -A
    cvs tag newbranch_bp
    cvs tag -b newbranch
    cvs update -r newbranch
    cvs update -j oldbranch_bp -j oldbranch
    cvs commit

but I repeat:  something's fishy with your approach.
