Yes, you could build into the AMI, or you could use a configuration management system. Alternatively, you could put an ELB in front of your instances and let it handle the SSL.

I already have SSL on ELB. I also know how to create an AMI... but how can I install SSL on EC2 ?

You could create an AMI and include the SSL configuration in the AMI.
A better option might be to use an ELB and AWS Certificate manager to terminate SSL. The ELB then talks http to your IIS servers. The SSL certificate is free from AWS for use in your ELB, but you can't use it outside the ELB. More documentation here.

Then you need to follow the advice in the first part of my answer. I can see that you would want to do that for regulatory or compliance reasons, but from a technical point of view it's likely unnecessary. AWS doesn't allow network sniffing, and they have full access to everything that isn't encrypted before it hits AWS anyway.

Just get a server working and create an AMI from that. There's no need for anything additional, but you'll need to recreate the AMI each time the certificate expires. Alternately you could put the certificate on S3 (with appropriate permissions) and use a startup script to download it when the server starts.
