You can model it in the BPMN, it is possible to loop back to a previous task.

If you are using the form features in Activiti 6, I believe there is an option for you to configure outcomes which is basically buttons on a task form. If you are not using forms, you will need to manage those using process variables. While completing a task using Return/Resubmit button, you can then set the process variable accordingly and in the BPMN model you can use an exclusive gateway to conditionally route to the appropriate task
