You can use the IDL 'finite' function.
I assume that both images have same dimensions.
step1:
IDL> w=where(~finite(image1) and ~finite(image2))
'w' is the vector of indices where both images have NaN values.
step2:
IDL> w=where(~finite(image1) and finite(image2),/NULL)
IDL> image1[w]=image2[w]
'w' is the vector of indices where image1 has NaN while image2 has finite values.
Then same statement, but exchanging image1 and image2.
alain.
