I suggest you use `\markup \table` for the overall structure, and
`\score` markup blocks within for the actual music.  Something like

```
\version "2.24.0"

musicA = \markup \score { { c'1 } }
musicB = \markup \score { { d'8 e' } }
musicC = \markup \score { { f'4 g' } }
musicD = \markup \score { { a'2 b' } }

\markuplist {
  \override #'((padding . 20)
               (baseline-skip . 10))
  \table #'(-1 -1) {
    \musicA \musicB
    \musicC \musicD
  }
}
```
