Convert to an X Y coordinate System

I have seen that geographical coordinates in (latitude, longitude) format can be converted to XY coordinates using Mathlab equal area function [x,y]=grn2equ(lat, lon)
Is there a similar function that converts lat, lon coordinates to equal distance xy coordinate system?
(Basically what I want to do is to convert a set of points (lat, lon)to plane X y coordinates and do some distance calculations on them. Further, these lat, lon coordinates refers to WGS84)

You can use projfwd to convert latitude-longitude coordinates to x and y map coordinates in a projected coordinate reference system (CRS) returned by projcrs. Any projected CRS introduces distortions compared to maps on a globe, and as a result there is no CRS which will enable you to perfectly maintain distance calculations between the globe and x,y map coordinates. However, if you are working in a small region you can choose an appropriate projected CRS designed for that region which minimizes distortion and can approximate actual distances on the globe (ellipsoid). As an example, the code below computes the globe-based geodesic distance between two points in Massachusetts and compares it to the equivalent distance computed in x,y coordinates for two projected Coordinate Reference Systems. The computed distances match well.
