Is it still possible to apply for an non-o status while on a 60day visa here?
Answer summary
It is possible to apply for a Non-O visa while on a 60-day visa in Thailand, but you need to have approximately 15-21 days remaining on your valid visa stamp. If you do not have enough days left, you may apply for a 30-day extension at immigration before proceeding with the change of visa type.

if you are aiming for change from a visa-exempt entry to the 90-days Non-IMM- O retirement visa, click om number 9 for the requirements . . check here:
If you don't have the required numbers of days remaining and you are indeed still on your Visa (or Visa Exempt) 60 day entry stamp you can get a 30 day extension at Immigration.
did you read his post? He said you can use the extension if you don't have enough time. You cannot convert to a non-O visa unless you have 14-21 days left on your stamp, depending on the immigration office. If you don't have enough days left then you get the extension then you apply to convert visas.
Graham, he wants to apply for the "change of visa type" from a visa exempt entry to a 90-days Non Imm O visa. A "30-days tourist extension" is not the correct approach .. . google "change of visa type Thai immigration" and you will find the answer
thanks..I kind of confused due to the new eta comes December and the 180days allowed compared to previous years when we can easily just do border runs and walk in to extend the visa exempt..
