You cannot add a measure in matrix row. (Like @Mohammad_Refaei said )

Have you every looked into "Show on rows" functionality for your needs? Just curious.

Thanks for your reply. I tried the option and its works for value column not im row level. 

It has limitations and not work for all scenarios.
Shared so that it is worth a look and see if you could change your visualization.
Sorry, if this does not help your scenario.
