TLDR : Answer Summary
A person with a one-year business multi-visa, married to a Thai citizen, is seeking advice on obtaining a one-year extension of stay due to closed borders preventing regular stamp renewals. Responses confirm that an extension based on marriage is possible, advising to visit the local immigration office with the necessary documents and spouse.

Yep, totally possible

Take your thai wife and your passport to the immigration office that you use and get the hand out listing the requirements needed for you to apply for a yearly extension of stay based on marriage using income made in thailand from legally working here. They have a sheet that lists the documents from the employer, the copies, the photos etc,

Or I should qualify that by saying it SHOULD be possible because in order to get a yearly extension based on marriage to a thai you need to hold or have held a non-Immigrant visa and an entry stamp or extension from it <- and seeing as you entered on a non-B visa and got a 90 day entry stamp you should be able to now apply for a yearly extension based on marriage

BUT

Go to the immigration office and confirm it BEFORE this amnesty runs out
