I want to know , if mod_ssl will authenticate other modules from remote
/local host or it authenticate clients only. ?

mod_ssl only encrypts the communications from client to/from server.

OpenSSL (on which mod_ssl is based) can be used to encrypt other sorts
of network streams, but I have really no idea what kind of
communication you are talking about or what you mean by "modules"
(obviously not apache modules, since those can't be "remote").
