No. You change trains once, in Thung Song or Chumphon or Chaiya or Surat Thani or Bang Saphan or Pathio or Lang Suan, and book each train as a separate ticket.
Take RP174 at 16:30, change in Thung Song and continue on EX83. The whole trip takes about 16h, including 13h 07m to change trains.
At least one hour at the same station. Long-distance trains, especially from the south, are often late, so a wait of 2–3 hours is safer. If you change between Hua Lamphong and Krung Thep Aphiwat in Bangkok, allow extra time to cross the city.
