should work.  You can then read the pploutput file.   Since the output 
is not in a format that's very amenable to matlab you might want to 
write a filter script that reformats the output in a way that can be 
loaded more easily, e.g., as a matrix.   Let's say that script is called 
'format-ppl' then you would run something like

system('c:\cygwin\srilm\bin\cygwin\ngram -lm LM -ppl test.txt -debug 2 | 
reformat-ppl  > pploutput');
