Is it possible to declare a variable in the playbook which fetch the value from Ansible tower credentials?

example :

- hosts: "{{ target }}’  
var:  
passwd "{{ password }}’  
user “{{ username }}”

tasks  
-name install apache

I need here the playbook to fetch passwd and user variable value from Tower credentials. Is there any way to do this ?

ansible \_ssh\_pass
