both of my front tyre is used with image shown...

Inside still having good tyre treads while another side almost finished..

is it because of my alignment ran away?

will re-alignment make the the condition lesser?
or need to change a new set of tyre?

Yes, you need to do alignment. Maybe the camber sudah lari.

Also, make sure your tire pressure is correct... Sometimes not enough pressure can cause uneven wear on your tires.

Yes, it's alignment problem, maybe too much toe-in, and/or got positive camber (or not enough negative camber). So better flip the tire orientation and do alignment again. No need to change tire yet.

If only judging by thread wear in the photos, yes can still be used. I've used tires until much more worn out than that. But if your tires is already 4yrs old or more, then better change them also since the rubber might already be brittle.
