I don't understand the question. Can you clarify?
Can electrochemical cells be used to easily measure electron transfer from Redox reactions?
Yes. In fact that is how the Eo reduction potential tables have been created. They use the H2 ==> H^+ + 2e in a 1 M = (H^+) and 1 atm pressure for the H2 gas half cell and that is the standard cell set at zero voltage and 298 K. That is called the SHE (standard hydrogen electrode). There are a number of secondary cells that are used. They are the SCE (standard calomel electrode), etc.
