Chef does not aggregate metrics on a time based series. You can check which data it collects and sends back to the chef server and also automate by calling ohai on your command line but you would have to collect this data and put it in a time series yourself.
What you are asking for is some kind of metrics collection which has thousands of solutions out there.One of them which I personally can recommend is Netdata (https://github.com/firehol/netdata) in combination with Prometheus (https://github.com/prometheus/prometheus) and Grfana (https://github.com/grafana/grafana).
