Update:

I figured it out:
---
- hosts: localhost
  tasks:
    - name: get filename of latest mongo backup
      shell: s3cmd ls s3://my_backup_bucket/production/ | awk 
'NF{p=$4}END{print p}'
      register: lmongo
    - set_fact: last_mongo="{{lmongo.stdout}}"
- hosts: db
  tasks:
    - debug:
        msg: "mongo: {{{hostvars['localhost']['last_mongo']}}}"

Is there a better way?
