Does Matlab able to solve an inexact programing model?

Is there a way to solve an inexact programing model with Matlab?

Define what you mean by the words "inexact programming model". Essentially, you can do anything you want in MATLAB.
Let's say I want to slove the following problem:
z = [20, 30] y1 + [70, 80] y2
with set of the following constraints:
[2, 3] y1 + y2 <= 100,
3 y1 + [6, 7] y2 <= 350,
Huh?
Again, SLOW DOWN!
I might guess that the numbers in brackets refer to intervals? By this:
[20,30] y1
are you intending to multiply the number y1 by a number in the interval [20,30]?
If so, then what do you mean by "solving" this "problem"?
z = [20, 30] y1 + [70, 80] y2
Is z given? If z is not given, then to try to solve anything is meaningless.
If you want an answer, you need to CLEARLY explain what you need.
If your question is indeed about interval arithmetic, then I would suggest that you do a Google search with terms like:
