My 3D Points feature can do it as a percentage. I'd like to update it at some point to also be able to do it as a distance, but it doesn't right now. https://cad.onshape.com/documents/309e817bcaf616677a834985/w/ee7fdbb710c9b2bce5097f35/e/7986bc066af7b9207b9b5594

3D Point by @MBartlett21 would seem to be what you're looking for. Although when I tested it I couldn't get the Along Path option to work for some reason.0

You can also create a curve along an edge using bridge curve. Not exactly what you're looking for but the curve's end point is a point on a curve at a % distance.
