TLDR : Answer Summary

If you receive a positive response to your DTV application while in Thailand, you will need to leave the country and re-enter to activate the DTV. It is advised to first enter Thailand on a Visa Exempt status and then apply for the DTV. Once approved, exiting and re-entering is necessary for the activation.

DTV VISA RESOURCES / SERVICES

Take the basic DTV Qualification Test to see if you're eligible for the Destination Thailand Visa (DTV).

You will need to leave and re-enter Thailand to activate the DTV. Someone already posted about doing this. Entered on Visa Exempt. Got DTV approved after. Flew out and back in to activate

I think you will be fine. The DTV is 5 years from date of issue. The 180 entry is activated when you enter on the DTV. Just fly out and in or do a border run by road.
