I wonder if I can obtain the meta data for fonts I'm using via Adobe Fonts.
If I purchase an individual font and obtain its font file, I can use opentype.js (https://opentype.js.org/font-inspector.html) to get the font meta data such as unitsPerEm and sxHeight (which are useful to set font-size based on the preferred x-height).

Actually, you are asking for the font metrics, not really metadata.
No, Adobe does not provide explicitly provide that information although you could conceivably write software to enumerate currently-available fonts and use operating system services to access the font metrics. Furthermore, since most of the Adobe Fonts are OpenType CFF as opposed to OpenType TTF fonts, the opentype.js software you refer to will not work on the fonts even if you had the font files themselves.
