I have my backpack (6-7kg) and one carry-on (12kg) and given the strict limits of one hand-luggage i am thinking of checking it in for the VietJet flight but no need to check-in for KL (take it with me). Is this enough time to do this self-transit? VZ101 is consistently on-time since May (landing well before 9am).

In my opinion, yes you have enough time. You would need to collect your luggage from the domestic baggage claim, go out of baggage claim and up the escalator to departures and get a BP for your KL flight. Then go through Thai immigration to the international gates.
