Can I exit Thailand on my visa expiration date and reenter on the same day?

@Stuart ********
 So if you are only staying for a few days every time you come, like 3 days Thailand followed by 1-2 months outside with the cycle repeating many times all over, this should not be a problem because the person is clearly not living in Thailand?
