That is an interesting thing. 300.3(B) actually says

"(B) Conductors of the Same Circuit. All conductors of the same
circuit and, where used, the grounded conductor and all equipment
grounding conductors and bonding conductors shall be contained
within the same raceway, auxiliary gutter, cable tray, cablebus
assembly, trench, cable, OR cord, unless otherwise permitted in
accordance with 300.3(B)(1) through (4)."

Since this is all in the same "raceway" does the "or" eliminate the
need to have them all in the same cable jacket?

You need to read the exceptions, exception (3) basically says for NM
and UF, you don't need to have all the conductors in the same cable,
you just need them all to go through the same hole when entering a
metallic box.

I missed the OP, if he is installing conduit to the well house, why
use a cable assembly at all?
