You can simply use the command phpenmod.

If you have several php versions intalled you can also use this syntax:

phpenmod -v 5.6 <modulename>
phpenmod -v 7.1 <modulename>
...

That worked in my case because I have 7.0, 7.1, 7.2 and 7.3 installed, but because of requirements I have to run my apache2 with 7.2.

phpenmod moduleName enables a module to php7 (restart apache after that sudo service apache2 restart)
phpdismod moduleName disables a module to php7 (restart apache after that sudo service apache2 restart)
php -m lists the loaded modules

To check available modules, run php -m - it's a content of /etc/php/yourPHPVersion/mods-available
Select module from the list and enable it (let's say you want to enable soap) phpenmod soap
Reload apache2 service apache2 reload or systemctl reload apache2 And you have a module enabled.
To disable the same module, run phpdismod soap, reload apache2 service apache2 reload
