TLDR : Answer Summary
The feasibility of a same-day border run in Thailand varies by border location. Some borders require an overnight stay or longer to re-enter, while others may not allow certain visa holders to re-enter without exiting to a different country. Travelers are advised to check the specific regulations at the border they plan to use.

Wanna mention WHAT border you're thinking of bouncing at in thailand?

Some borders (even if you have a valid visa) make you stay out overnight or two nights before you can get back in

AND

believe it or not some border won't even let people on DTV's bounce out/back at all, they'll let you out and tell you to go fly back in 😮

It's really tough to just give an answer without knowing what border you intend to bounce at

Where are you in thailand?

Just go back the same day or more cost effect to fly out and back in again and takes less time.
