I do have checked luggage that I will have to re-check. On my side is that Air Asia has online check-in so I can hopefully already have my boarding pass.
Can I make this? Will it be close, or am I easily safe?
This is going to be tight. You're having to go from a domestic Thailand flight connecting to an international flight. Keep in mind that BKK airport (sorry can't spell the proper name) is huge - it took me nearly 30 minutes to walk from one finger to another, and this was on the airside, although to be fair I was going diagonally across. The good news is that I assume that Bangkok Airways should land pretty much on time. Whether or not you can make it to the Air Asia check in with your checked baggage is a different story (don't forget, you'll have to clear passport control after that).
