Using Ansible to decrypt remote files?

Maybe it's a silly question but... I would like to have an Ansible task that simply decrypts some remote files that have been encrypted with ansible-vault

I had in mind to use the copy module with the option decrypt: yes but it is not working for me because remote_src: yes don't support decrypt: yes

Autodecryption of files does not work when remote_src=yes.

https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/2.9/modules/copy_module.html

Is there any other way to achieve this?

- name: Decrypting secrets
  become: true
  copy:
    src: "{{ path }}"
    dest: "{{ path }}"
    owner: "{{ user }}"
    group: "{{ user }}"
    decrypt: yes
    remote_src: yes

Ansible version --> 2.9

ansible

ansible-vault
