change order of columns and measures

I have a matrix with looks something like this:

 

 Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 
MaterialMeasure 1Measure 2Measure 1Measure 2Measure 1Measure 2
Material A1000%11010%15036%
Material B1000%15050%20033%
Material C2000%2105%23010%

 

but i want to create something like this, where i see each measure together, i.e. I want to switch the priority of years and the measures. Is this possible with a matrix?

The year is currently in the "columns", and the measures are in the "values".

 Year 1Year 2Year 3Year 1Year 2Year 3
MaterialMeasure 1Measure 1Measure 1Measure 2Measure 2Measure 2
Material A1001101500%10%36%
Material B1001502000%50%33%
Material C2002102300%5%10%

 

Thanks, James

Interested to know if this can be done today, in Jun'2022. 

The earlier best answer says.. it wasn't possible then.

@jhd I guess you have measure 1 and 2 on values, unfortunaltey you cannot change the look the way you want, it is going to show each measure from value section for each column.
