Concatenate levels of hierarchy in matrix

As per title, i would like various levels of a hierarchy I use as Row Header for a matrix to be concatenated when drilling down.

 

1. Starting Point1. Starting Point

2. Current outcome2. Current outcome

3.Desired outcome3.Desired outcome

 

(Image 3 is just a reference I made up using paint, but it should be enough to get an idea of what I would like to accomplish.)

Based on what I've been able to gather thus far, this might not even be possible to do.
Could someone confirm/deny this?

Use concatenate() and combine those two columns later add to the matrix after the top category

Do I need to create a measure using CONCATENATE() or do I need a calculated column?
Because I am not able to create new calculated columns as the data I'm using comes from a direct connection to a live dataset.

you need calculated column
