Ansible "copy" works from the control machine, not between arbitrary sets of servers.
If you're ok with that, use the copy module. if not, you would need to use "fetch" to grab it first, then "copy" to push it out to others. I'll admit that's a very uncommon use case though, and better if you can centralize.
