Jul 4, 2012 at 12:55 comment added David White In case it'll help the OP, I want to mention that my go-to source for questions like this is Lectures on Modules and Rings by T.Y. Lam. This argument appears on page 172 as Corollary 5.23. I assume the OP asked his question for a reason, and it might be useful to read this section of Lam to see if other questions he has are also answered.
Jul 4, 2012 at 11:05 comment added Anton Fonarev @Fernando, this obviously happens as $pd_{\mathbf{Z}/4}(\mathbf{Z}/2)=\infty$. I've already put this assumption that I had in mind.
Jul 4, 2012 at 10:59 comment added Fernando Muro Counterexample: the ring $\mathbb{Z}/4$ and the extension $0\rightarrow \mathbb{Z}/2\rightarrow\mathbb{Z}/4\rightarrow\mathbb{Z}/2\rightarrow$.

Jul 4, 2012 at 10:57 comment added Anton Fonarev @a-fortiori Sure, thanks for pointing this out.
Jul 4, 2012 at 10:28 comment added user2035 It is also possible that $\mathrm{pd}_B(N)=0\ne\infty=\mathrm{pd}_B(M)$.
