Anbar Awakening seems like a good model for what you seek. While not strictly speaking "secessionist", they fought against Iraqi gvernment; but then "grew tired" of transnational Jihadi "brothers in arms" and started supporting Iraqui government (and US military) against them (to oversimplify to the point of absurdity).

Two marginal cases:
Zionist forces during WW2. Some collaborated with the British, notably the campaign against French Syria and the Jewish brigade, while others were conducting assassinations and working towards strengthening themselves for the liberation struggle (from their POV).
Basque forces during the Spanish civil war, fighting with the legal government against the right wing coup.
