Plant based queso could definitely work. I make queso (the Tex-Mex dip stuff) often, and the most important element to make it authentic is sodium citrate, which is usually included with American cheese slices but could easily be added in powder form. Most of the flavor profile is through spices (cumin) or salsas (roja, verde, etc.)
