TLDR : Answer Summary
Yes, you can apply for an extension of your 30-day tourist visa in Thailand when you have 30 days or less remaining on your visa. Since you plan to apply 8 days before expiration, that should be acceptable according to most immigration offices.

most immigration offices allow you to apply for an extension when you have 30 days or less left on your current stamp so you'd be fine applying 8 days before it expires.
