You can right align all columns, though I am not sure that this looks better,
because column 2 and 3 now appear to be "too close".
\definemathmatrix[bmatrix]
[matrix:brackets]
[align=all:right,simplecommand=bmatrix]
\starttext
$ a \rightarrow
\bmatrix{1, 2, 3, 4;
2, 1, 4, 3;
3,-4, 1,-2;
4,-3, 2,-1} $
\stoptext
