1] pdb2gmx generate ligands.top (if possible, basically you need
generate your ligand.itp by other ways) and rename it as ligands.itp
2] pdb2gmx generate protein.top and rename it as protein.itp (also
need delete some entry)
3] create the topol.top includes the ligands.itp and protein.itp, take
care the double entry.
(To make it easy, you may take some pdb with several chains. use
pdb2gmx and see how those top files combined together.)
4] The docked structure skip the pdb2gmx step. go directly to the editconf.

You may do a try, but it will be helpful if you are a bit familiar
with how to combine those top_files.
