You need to exit Thailand and reenter Thailand.

Obviously exit without reentry permit thereby killing off the non O-A.

You can then reenter visa exempt and obtain a non O based on retirement and subsequent extension. 

That was my understanding having an O-A for reason of Retirement. My plan was to leave on my current trip to the USA and come back, Visa Exempt and then take the steps to gain an O Visa for reason of Retirement while in Thailand. As it turned out, I was able to change my O-A Visa for reason of Retirement to an O Visa for reason of marriage to a Thai national. Re-entry Permit good until end of Feb. 2024.

Obtain a Non O based on retirement.

 Can obtain that in Oz or enter Thailand visa exempt and obtain non O retirement at immigration office.

Assume you have Thai bank account in your name only. 

 

Here is thread with advice for entering visa exempt to retirement option.
