Instead of a list, put the commands into a dictionary. Test with
debug first. For example

  vars:
    command_set:
      A: ipaddr
      B: ifconfig
      C: freespace -m
      D: yum repolist
  vars_prompt:
    - name: input
      prompt: Please enter the option {{ command_set.keys()|list }}
      private: no
  tasks:
    - debug:
        msg: Command {{ command_set[input] }}
      when: input in command_set.keys()|list

You'll be better off with "Data driven programming" in similar
use-cases. See
