TLDR : Answer Summary

A user inquired about renewing their Non-B visa without leaving Thailand, as they typically perform visa runs but face border closures. They are currently employed in Thailand and unable to return to their home country. Responses indicate that renewal in Bangkok is unlikely without exiting the country, and the user should consider applying for a one-year extension based on employment instead.

At this time we are waiting to see what the Thai government will announce April 30.

So until a border opens up there is no possibility to bounce out and back.

Sorry...but until Thai government either open the borders by May 15 or they extend the amnesty...

There is nothing more you can do.

To my knowledge, no. On a Non-B visa, you can only get a one year extension of stay based on employment. I suggest either applying for that extension of stay, or waiting until early May to see if there is any new programs established by the Thai government to let you stay here longer.
