You can use "set_fact" to do this. There is a slight question of whether this actually works, as I haven't tested it :)
Really, it sounds like you should look into an external inventory script for me, but if you have a CLI interface, it will hit that CLI lots of times and potentially overwhelm the local or remote end if you use large fork counts or large numbers of hosts - I'd see if it had an API if possible.
