I do not have a LabVIEW installation, so you'll need to answer some questions before I can answer yours.
Please post a screenshot of LabVIEW's help file for CounterGet.
I just checked Team 358's excellent
LabVIEW examples web pages, and it looks like CounterGet returns the
period (seconds/count). So yes, that appears to be using the FPGA to measure the elapsed time between counts.

It is similar to how we currently do it, and it seems to work well for high speeds.

How exactly do you do it? And are you using a one-per-rev counter? And how high is "high speed".
