I have a H1B visa that has been renewed once already. However in the designated period of 6 years I have been in the US for only around 2. Does that mean I can renew my H1B visa or reapply fresh?...

... I was told that since I have not yet used up my remaining 4 years of my visa allocated period, I can simply reapply and don’t have to go through the process of petition lottery, etc., and just renew - is this true?

Yes you are cap exempt for those 4 years but will need PERM i140 to extend beyond that.
