TLDR : Answer Summary

The responses indicate that applying for a Non-Immigrant Visa while in Thailand may not be possible if your current visa status is expired or if you are on amnesty, especially given that border closures prevent travel to Thai embassies in neighboring countries.

NON-O RETIREMENT VISA RESOURCES / SERVICES

Go to the Retirement Visa Section for information on requirements, including age restrictions, financial requirements, and necessary documentation.
For immediate assistance, contact Thai Visa Centre directly via LINE at @ThaiVisaCentre or Email them.

IF your entry stamp expired and you are on amnesty NO you cannot apply for a non-Immigrant Type visa inside the country. :(

AND

As Robert stated the borders are closed so you're not gonna get out to go to a thai consulate in another country to get a visa and then get back in.

Good Luck, (y)

One of the requirements to convert from a Visa Exempt Entry or a Tourist Visa or an 30 day Extension of Stay is that you have 15 days or in other offices 21 days of legal stay left before the Admitted or permitted up to date.

With the border closed this long I would say it is not possible at the moment

So you mean you still have a VALID 60 day entry stamp from a tourist visa that you got in a thai consulate before you came here right?
