Yes, this works. But we still need \globalpushmacro\c_math_matrix_first, 
otherwise nested matrices have wrong distance.

https://mailman.ntg.nl/pipermail/ntg-context/2017/089631.html

So, the following appears to work correctly:

\unprotect
\newcount\c_math_eqalign_column_saved
\newcount\c_math_eqalign_first_saved

\unexpanded\def\math_matrix_start#1%
   {\begingroup
    \globalpushmacro\c_math_matrix_first
    \c_math_eqalign_column_saved\c_math_eqalign_column
    \c_math_eqalign_first_saved \c_math_eqalign_first
    \edef\currentmathmatrix{#1}%
    \dosingleempty\math_matrix_start_indeed}

\def\math_matrix_stop
   {\math_matrix_stop_processing
    \global\c_math_eqalign_column\c_math_eqalign_column_saved
    \global\c_math_eqalign_first\c_math_eqalign_first_saved
    \globalpopmacro\c_math_matrix_first
    \endgroup}
\protect

I am not sure why the assignments in math_matrix_start are not global but 
those in math_matrix_stop are global.
