Answer summary
The STV (Special Tourist Visa) cannot be changed to any other type of visa while inside Thailand, according to current visa regulations. If you are currently on an STV visa or its extension, you are not allowed to convert it to a non-immigrant B visa.

According to the rules of the STV visa it cannot be changed into any other visa inside Thailand.
Are you now in Thailand?
If you are now in Thailand
I assume you are on a STV visa or extension. ...
If so...
What is the expiration date of your current permission to stay stamp date in your passport?
How many STV extensions have you had? One or two?

@Jeff ******
He can not convert the extension of stay to anything else.See"4.3 STV cannot be changed to any other type of visa during the duration of stay in Thailand.
4.4 If the STV holder breaches the entry conditions (for example, if he/she engages in work-related activities), the stay permit will be revoked and he/she will be prohibited from entering Thailand in the future."
