ansible lineinfile module to replace a single line with multiple lines

I have a ansible play which works correctly as follows, here i have two From entries which are being changed with TO entries.

But i'm just wondering if there is way where i can replace one line with two lines in a file called ntp.conf in my case.

- name: Play to correct the config for NTP clients
  hosts: all
  remote_user: root
  gather_facts: False

  tasks:
  - name: Changing the ntp server configuration on the client
    lineinfile:
      path: /etc/ntp.conf
      ### line to be searched & matched
      regexp: '{{ item.From }}'
      ### line to be in placed
      line: '{{ item.To }}'
      state: present
      backup: yes
      backrefs: yes

    with_items:
    - { From: 'server ros-ntp minpoll 4 maxpoll 10', To: 'server ros-gw.fuzzy.com minpoll 4 maxpoll 10'}
    - { From: 'server ros-ntp-b minpoll 4 maxpoll 10', To: 'server ros-b-gw.fuzzy.com minpoll 4 maxpoll 10'}

    notify: restart_ntp_service

  handlers:
  - name: restart_ntp_service
    service:
      name: ntpd
      state: restarted

I got the work around as follows with using lineinfile module, still looking for the other way around if someone comes across. Just placing the working answer below for posterity ...

The newline \n works well with version 2.3 and 2.4 qs well, just to be sure not to use \\n <- thi sis from the actual git commit.

    # Replace the newline character with an actual newline. Don't replace
    # escaped \\n, hence sub and not str.replace.
    line = re.sub(r'\n', os.linesep, params['line'])
    # Replace the newline character with an actual newline, but be careful
    # not to trigger other escape sequences (specifically octal \ooo)
    line = re.sub(r'((?<!(?:[^\\]\\))\\n)', os.linesep, params['line'])
