This might be semantics, but MTG is a bit of a word game.
Bubble Matrix reads "All damage dealt to creatures is reduced to 0". Cards with death touch state that any amount of damage dealt to creature is enough to destroy it.
The question is, in this scenario and other similar plays (i.e. Lifelink), do effects that happen based on damage dealt still occur before/although damage is reduced to 0?

Negative. As all damage is prevented/reduced to zero, there would be no triggering of any damage based effects like lifelink or deathtouch. This is similar to using a Fog to stop a deathtouch creature from killing your creature. While, damage prevention IS different from what Bubble Matrix is doing, for this purpose, it will have the same effect.
