Here are two simple methods.
It is easy to use regexp to achieve this:
>> c = {'123.45e','1.23456A'};
>> D = regexp(c,'(\d+\.\d+)(.+)','tokens','once');
>> D = vertcat(D{:})
D = 
    '123.45'     'e'
    '1.23456'    'A'
Or if the letter is always just one character (and never multiple letters) then you could simply use indexing:
>> D = cellfun(@(s){s(1:end-1),s(end)},c,'Uni',0);
>> D = vertcat(D{:})
D = 
  '123.45'     'e'
  '1.23456'    'A'
