Can I pay by card at the staff canteens in Changi airport?

No, you can’t. As is generally the case in Singapore, most stalls are cash only or accept a limited set of local payment methods generally not including credit cards.

However, Singapore being Singapore (and because cash-only transactions make it all too easy to evade taxes), the government is strong-arming all hawkers into accepting electronic payments, so maybe someday soon you will be able to pay by credit card. Just beware that it’s the hawker who has to pay the merchant fees and wait for their money to come through, so cash is likely to remain king for a good long time.
