I presume you can't move the GotoIfTime into the macro itself?
Would something like that work for you? (You might need to doublecheck
the exact syntax!)

exten => 554,3,GotoIfTime(08:30-14:30|mon-wed|*|*?novm,567,1)
...
[novm]
exten => _X.,1,Macro(exten-vm,novm,${EXTEN})
...

Otherwise, can you post the rest of your dialplan and/or describe in
more detail what you're trying to achieve?
