I found this lab document, which instructs students to measure the force between two capacitor plates and use that to determine $\epsilon_{0}$.
Before I found the document, I was writing my own idea that could be done in principle. I'll write it here anyways. The idea is to consider a charged ball hung on a string and placed between two capacitor plates.
First, charge the ball by connecting a wire to it and sending a current $I$ for some time $\Delta t$.
Using an ammeter you can find $I$, and then you can calculate its total charge by taking $q_{\text{ball}} = I\cdot\Delta t$.
Next, charge the capacitor plates the same way by sending a current $I$. Measure the current with an ammeter, and we find the charge density on each plate to be $\sigma_{\text{plate}} = I\cdot\Delta t / \text{Area}$.
Now by testing the force on the ball for various values of $\sigma_{\text{plate}}$ and $q_{\text{ball}}$, you can experimentally determine that the force $F$ is linearly proportional to $q_{\text{ball}}$ and $\sigma_{\text{plate}}$.
This tells us that the force on the ball is
$$ F = \frac{q_{\text{ball}}\sigma_{\text{plate}}}{\alpha(x)} $$
and $1/\alpha(x)$ is some constant of linear proportionality that may depend on the location where your charged ball is placed between the two plates.
By determining the charge placed on your ball, the charge on your plates, and the force on the ball, you can calculate the value of $\alpha(x)$.
Notice, however, that at this stage we don't know whether $\alpha(x)$ is the same as $\epsilon_{0}$.
For this, you need to use Gauss's law to deduce that $E = \sigma_{\text{plate}}/\epsilon_{0}$ and thus $F = q_{\text{ball}}\sigma_{\text{plate}}/\epsilon_{0}$ is the force on the ball. But since $F = q_{\text{ball}}\sigma_{\text{plate}}/\alpha(x)$, it follows $\alpha(x) = \epsilon_{0}$. So an experimental measurement of $\alpha(x)$ gives an experimental measurement of $\epsilon_{0}$.
