Like toolic I've replaced your duff quotes with double quotes. Here's a solution using the hash (as that looks to be an area confusing you):

#!/usr/bin/env perl 
use strict;
use warnings;

while (<DATA>) {
    my %aa = ();
    for my $key (qw/id name/) {
        ($aa{$key}) = (/$key (\S+)/);
        print "$key $aa{$key} ";
    };
    print "\n";
}
__DATA__
A B C . id "ABS0056"; D; E; F; G; name "SAM"; H; I; J; K;
A B C . id "ABS0059"; D; E; F; name "JOE"; G; H; I; J; K;
A B C . id "ABS0060"; D; E; F; G; name "MARY"; H; I; J; K;
A B C . id "ABS0057"; D; E; F; G; H; name "BILL"; I; J; K;
A B C . id "ABS0065"; D; E; name "RONIE"; F; G; H; I; J; K;
A B C . id "ABS0061"; D; E; F; G; name "STEPHAN"; H; I; J; K;

Update: removed the g modifier as it isn't necessary here.
