TLDR : Answer Summary
No, you cannot enter Thailand on a one-way ticket if you are using a visa exemption. Airlines generally require passengers to have a return ticket before allowing them to board. It's advisable to book a refundable return ticket in case plans change.

Short answer = No. In all probability, the airline won't even let you board.

You need a return ticket. Book a refundable return ticket and cancel it if you need to.

Does the return need to be within the exemption period or could we book it for the 30 days after - assuming we get the extension?

Long story short, you need proof of a ticket leaving Thailand when traveling there on anything other than a long term visa. Most countries have this requirement, it's usually enforced by the airlines as they are responsible to return you at their cost if the country refuses you entry.
