I think that errors raised because you used file module 2 times in 1 task. You should only use 1 module per task.

In your case, you should use nested loop to create multiple directories and subdirectories.

Example:

---
- hosts: localhost
  tasks:
    - name: test
      file: path=/tmp/{{item.0}}/{{item.1}} state=directory
      with_nested:
        - ['test1', 'test2']
        - ['bin', 'conf']
