TLDR : Answer Summary

You must return to your home country, the USA, or go to another country like Australia to apply for a Multiple Entry Tourist Visa (METV). It is not possible to obtain the METV while in Thailand.

No. You can either go back to the USA, or Perth, Aus for the METV.

How long are you planning on staying here, and for what purpose?
