 tasks:

    - name: Create FlexVol

      na_ontap_volume:

An option would be the "ternary" filter. For example
https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/latest/user_guide/playbooks_filters.html#id8

tasks:
- name: Create FlexVol
na_ontap_volume:

...
type: "{{ (volume_item|int < 11)|ternary('rw', 'dp') }}"
...

with_sequence: start=1 end=20
loop_control:
loop_var: volume_item

Yes. It's possible. Fit the condition to your needs. For example

type: "{{ (volume_item|int is odd)|ternary('rw', 'dp') }}"
