I suspect include_vars is an action plugin, as it is the sort of thing that only runs on the controller, so isn't a module (which is typically delivered to the machines you are managing and run remotely).
However, I'm wondering if the simplest thing to do is just to wrap ansible-playbook in your own script that just adds the vars from a file to the ansible playbook as a -e @/path/to/some/yaml/or/json/file I guess you might need to load different vars files for different playbooks or something, but just wondering if doing the simples thing might be enough. What is your goal? What problem are you trying to solve. There might be a way to solve it without resorting to adding your own custom code on top of ansible?
