Even if you could, it's by no means certain that the tesla servers would accept a connection from a car on a different network. The OTA stuff is pretty locked down for obvious reasons.
The 200% import tax won't help either.. How to import a foreign car into Thailand
Maybe try buying locally? There look to be a number of different teslas sold on the second hand market there, and those will have already been 'fixed'.

On episode 214 of Ride the Lightning podcast someone phoned in about changing SIMs - he was in Brazil. After changing the SIM (apparently reasonably easy on a Model 3) you need to request a ‘Non-Tesla SIM Card Waiver’ from a service centre to get it to work. Jump to 46min 20sec in the episode (on the UK iOS feed anyway).

Although not a perfect solution, you could tether the car to your phone’s Wifi hotspot, which will give you the same access while you are looking into a SIM card swap.
Currently, you would have to re-enable WiFi each time you drive, but this may change in a future update.
It's fairly well documented on the Tesla site but from what I remember, orders before a certain date had lifetime premium connectivity and this would persist with the life of the car. After that date, SR+ no longer had premium connectivity but LR + P had a year 1 subscription which would have to be renewed after. All used Tesla purchases come with a 30 day trial.
