Do I need a letter stating my company allows me to work remotely from Thailand for a DTV visa?

I will apply for a remote worker DTV visa. I see one of the requirements is a letter from the company confirming that I work remotely.

Do they also require the letter to state that the company allows you to work from Thailand?

TLDR : Answer Summary
To apply for a remote worker DTV visa for Thailand, it is generally advised to have a letter from your employer confirming your remote work status. While some embassies may have different requirements, many users have found that a standard employment contract indicating eligibility to work remotely suffices. It may be beneficial if the letter explicitly states that you are allowed to work from Thailand, but it is not always necessary.

Ask your local embassy as requirements are different from embassy to embassy.

For me a working contract stating I‘m eligible to work remote from Thailand was enough. No cover letter needed.

It helps if it says "Thailand" on your work contract. But it's not necessary.

I think some consulates will arbitrarily add the remote work in Thailand arbitrarily, but it may be possible to get an approval with just authorization to work remotely in general.

Yes. Both checkboxes. Both could be in the same letter.
