Yes. Use copy module. I hope so you are referring to inventory file which
has all node details.
Like below
/etc/ansible/inventory
[all]
host1
host2
host3
/etc/ansible/playbook/master
host entry files
/etc/ansible/playbook/test.yaml
host: all
tasks:
- name: copying host file to all nodes
copy:
src: /etc/ansible/playbook/master
dest: /etc/hosts
mode: 0755
