Assuming this is referring to a foreign male marrying a Thai female, your plan will work.

for the applications to the 1-year permit of stay based on being married to a Thai, he needs to fulfill the financial requirements, which are either a deposit of 400,000 THB on a Thai bank account or proof of monthly income of a minimum of 40,000 THB
