Is there a way to use something like this in Terraform?
count = "${var.I_am_true}"&&"${var.I_am_false}"
Terraform doesn't support if-statements, so this code won't work. However, you can accomplish the same thing by using the count parameter and taking advantage of two properties: If you set count to 1 on a resource, you get one copy of that resource; if you set count to 0, that resource is not created at all.
There are three conditional operators: && the logical AND operator. || the logical OR operator. ?: the ternary operator.
A conditional operator is a single programming statement, while the 'if-else' statement is a programming block in which statements come under the parenthesis. A conditional operator can also be used for assigning a value to the variable, whereas the 'if-else' statement cannot be used for the assignment purpose.
This is more appropriate in the actual version (0.12.X)
The supported operators are:
Equality: == and !=
Numerical comparison: >, <, >=, <=
Boolean logic: &&, ||, unary !

condition_one and condition two:
count = var.condition_one && var.condition_two ? 1 : 0
condition_one and NOT condition_two:
count = var.condition_one && !var.condition_two ? 1 : 0
condition_one OR condition_two:
count = var.condition_one || var.condition_two ? 1 : 0
