Once somebody has been baptized into the LDS church, can they become a non-member without being excommunicated?

G'day Miss Zee, Thank you for your question. I would think so either by no longer being active in the church or joining another church. Regards

If you want to leave the Church, you simply need to contact the Bishop of the ward in which you live and tell him that you want your name removed from the rolls of the Church. He will then tell you what you have to do to accomplish this. *************** You can find out when your ward meets by going to http://www.mormon.org/question/worship/1,8578,797-1,00.html

Miss Zee, you actually don't need to speak with the bishop or anyone else for that matter. Should you desire to have your name removed all that you need to do is to write him a letter requesting such. When I did so I also copied my Stake President and sent a copy to the Membership Records Department in Salt Lake. Your bishop and stake president should be enough though. If you would like to see a sample letter or need some ideas on content, etc. You might check out this link which has good information for you. http://www.irr.org/mit/exit-letters.html
