" am running a playbook that connects to* remote host A*, and would like to know if it is possible to run a *delegate_to:* command on the *remote host* *A."*
The delegate_to keyword is there to supply a different host to run on than one being traversed by Ansible's host loop. If you are looping over the playbook on A, and want to run the command on A, you would leave off the delegate_to entirely. I'm perhaps not understanding the question though.
