  I don't think it works.

  Let's assume that door A is the save one and door B isn't.

  If you ask the question to the sincere guard he would answer "if I were
to lie to you, I would say that B is the safe door".

  That's the truth. Thus the lying guard would have to lie and claim the
opposite: "If I were to lie to you, I would say that A is the safe door."

  Thus you can't know which door is the safe one.
