This depends on whether you intend to use BOINC for a local grid e.g. at your University, where you can expect all computers to have Matlab installed (in a somewhat identical configuration) and licensed in a way that would cover the number of instances you intend to run. Then this seems at least possible. If, on the other hand, you intend to set up a public volunteer computing project, I would not use Matlab. You can't expect any volunteer that for some reason has Matlab running to sacrifice his license for your project. In general I'd first take a look at octave, which is a freely distributable alternative to Matlab, and is designed to be compatible with the Matlab programming language.
