I assume that you are talking about , command that is used to repeat
latest f, t, F or T in opposite direction (:help ,).

It's possible by providing non-recursive mappings for Normal,
Operator-pending and Visual modes

nnoremap . ,
onoremap . ,
xnoremap . ,

However, you may not want to shadow . command. It's used in normal mode
to repeat last change (:help .). For example, you can use double-tap
comma instead

nnoremap <Leader>, ,
onoremap <Leader>, ,
xnoremap <Leader>, ,
