You can do this in Mata.

. mata :
: exp((0,1\2,3))
                 1             2
    +-----------------------------+
  1 |            1   2.718281828  |
  2 |  7.389056099   20.08553692  |
    +-----------------------------+

You can also pass a Stata matrix into Mata to do this and pull back the result.

. matrix foo = (0,1\2,3)

. mata : st_matrix("foobar", exp(st_matrix("foo")))

. mat li foobar

foobar[2,2]
           c1         c2
r1          1  2.7182818
r2  7.3890561  20.085537
