- name: clean the switch
  ansible.netcommon.cli_command:
    command: request platform software package clean switch all
    prompt: Do you want to proceed? [y/n]
    answer: y
    newline: false

also tried like this 

    - name: clean the switch
      cli_command:
        command: reload
        prompt:
          - Do you want to proceed? [y/n]
        answer
          - y

Tried this also

      cli_command:
        command: 
        - request platform software package clean switch all 
        prompt: 
        - Do you want to proceed? [y/n]
        answer: 
        - y
        newline: false
      var:
        ansible_command_timeout: 300
