Can we apply the first Non immigrant visa in Thailand or we need to leave to Laos or Cambodia for applying in Thai embassy?
Please advise, thank you.
Summary so far
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.

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.
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
