How can I play an animation reversed ?

It is possible. You can read up on it here:

It first plays the animation at a very fast rate by setting the unit's animation speed to a very high value. e.g. set it to 1000% speed.

It waits a short period of time using a timer (e.g. until the animation is just about to finish), and then it sets the unit's animation speed to a negative value, e.g. -100%.

After that animation finishes (you have to use a timer again), it will restore the unit's animation speed to 100%.

tl;dr play the animation super fast, wait, play animation with negative speed, wait, reset animation speed to regular value. It is probably cumbersome to do in GUI though.
