TLDR : Answer Summary

Yes, it is possible to obtain COVID insurance while in Thailand and plan to travel out and return. Many users shared that they successfully got insurance policies during their travel, including options provided by Arawan Namak which covered various regions. It's important to note, however, that since November 1st, a general medical insurance policy is now required, not just COVID coverage.
