They somehow have a captive Elemental and somehow forced it to bestow upon some of them the ability to perform White Magic XD
There's plenty of corrupted elemental you have to deal with in the CNJ storyline and such. Maybe one could purposely corrupt an elemental of appropriate power and somehow get it to bestow Succor?
Oooh -- that's actually pretty interesting.
... Could someone DO that? I mean, you'd be getting Succor from an evil elemental that's borked to all hell and back, but that would be some pretty sweet character conflict to suddenly realise that the not-actually-conjury-powers-like-you-thought-they-were-holy-crap gifts you were getting from awesome Elemental buddy is Succor and your buddy is a corrupt Elemental in desperate need of cleansing. (Which likely means your Succor goes away once it's cleansed. Dun DUN DUNNN!)

That or an Arcanist tossing out Resurrect/Physick (at least, if they're meaningfully waving around a book in someone's direction), yep! No one would know unless that character trotted up to someone and promptly said "By the way, I'm a White Mage." which honestly doesn't really come up that often at all.
You could easily just have your character be a White Mage who keeps it very much on the down low that they are a White Mage and pretends to be a conjurer around virtually everyone until they really, really trust someone. Then you can OOCly decide who you RP the "I am a White Mage" bits with depending on whether or not you know they're comfortable with it. Best of both worlds. You get to RP with almost e'eryone.
