Thank you @tangowithfoxtrot

You need to add become: true to your tasks:

---
- name: Upload certificate files
  hosts: fw.local
  gather_facts: no

  tasks:

    - name: Display Wildcard_Cert_Pub_Output content 
      debug:
        msg: " {{ Wildcard_Cert_Pub_Output_Set_Stats.stdout |b64encode }} "

    - name: Display Wildcard_Cert_Key_Output content 
      debug:
        msg: " {{ Wildcard_Cert_Key_Output_Set_Stats.stdout |b64encode }} "

    - name: Import Wildcard-Cert into FW
      pfsensible.core.pfsense_cert:
        method: "import"
        name: "Wildcard-Cert"
        certificate: '{{ Wildcard_Cert_Pub_Output_Set_Stats.stdout | b64encode }}'
        key: '{{ Wildcard_Cert_Key_Output_Set_Stats.stdout | b64encode }}'
        certtype: "server"
        state: present
      when: "'fw.local' in inventory_hostname"
      become: true

and add the pfSense-pkg-sudo package if you haven't already. These modules work by editing the /cf/conf/config.xml file referenced in your error output, which is only writable for the root user.
