TLDR : Answer Summary
To switch from the Alternative Quarantine (AQ) option to the Test and Go program for entry into Thailand, you must reapply for your Thailand Pass. The comments confirm that a new application is required to participate in the Test and Go program.

I’m in the same situation, if I don’t have to stay for my 5th test. I won’t, and if I do, I will make my time worth it in Thailand

You are required to follow the rules for the entry scheme you got approved for. This also works the other way, people who got approved for Test & Go got to follow Test & Go rules even when they discontinued the program for awhile. They didn't have to follow the Sandbox rules even though Sandbox was the only entry method that remained other than AQ. So sometimes this policy of you having to follow the rules for the entry scheme you were approved for will work in your favor, and sometimes against it.
