can ansible force a path to be a link even when it is a directory with

is not idempotent.
You can't force it, you need to delete and create link as you do now.
on the first run it deletes the directory. but it is also deleting and
re-creating the link in every run after that.
Before you delete and create link use the stat module to check if the
path is a directory and then do a delete and create the link.
