TLDR : Answer Summary
A Nepalese national in Thailand wanting to change a Non-ED visa to a Non-B visa may need to leave Thailand, potentially to a neighboring country like Laos, as it is generally understood that you cannot change a Non-ED visa to a Non-B visa without exiting the country.

I think you can go to Lao to do what you need. I think it's not necessary to go to back Nepal, which I believe was more your question. I could be wrong on both accounts. But no doubt someone will correct me - then you'll get your answer

 You can change from a Visa Exempt Entry or Tourist Visa to a Non Immigrant B visa inside Thailand at some Immigration Offices. Check with the office in your area what the requirements are.
