I think I'd do:
single-no-ko := $(filter-out $(single-ko), $(MAKECMDGOALS))
single-no-ko += $(patsubst %.ko, %.o, $(single-ko))
single-no-ko += $(patsubst %.ko, %.mod, $(single-ko))

Although you can use the simpler SYSV make suffix substitution syntax:
single-no-ko += $(single-ko:.ko=.o) $(single-ko:.ko=.mod)
