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
