Can you leave Thailand on a retirement visa without losing your visa status if you haven't obtained a re-entry permit?

No it's crucial you get the re entry permit if you want to keep your visa active.

Doesn't have to be purchased when you get your visa though. You can buy from immigration or the airport as and when needed.
