Wikipedia mentions a ligature for NB (nota bene), however I can't seem to find any reference to this in the latex literature. Is there a way to use this ligature in my latex document?

To the best of my knowledge, there are no fonts out there (not even Junicode!) that provide a ready-made NB ligature.
It's actually not too difficult to create a composite NB glyph (not to be confused with a "true" ligature) by inserting a negative kern between N and B. However, for many font families the N-B composite is quite unattractive. It's a vivid reminder, IMNSHO, of the fact that creating a good-looking ligature requires a lot more work than just "snugging up" two or more glyphs.
The following screenshot shows possible NB candidates for 4 serif fonts and 3 sans-serif fonts. (If you wanted to use this in "real work", be sure to omit the textcolorred... wrapper in the definition of NB.)

One way to improve this might be to clip theNglyph where theBbegins to avoid the N poking out from the bottom like in Garamond or Futura. No idea whether that's possible though (although it's LaTeX, so arbitrary vector graphics operations on arbitrary font glyphs should be no problem, from what I've seen so far).
