One possible option is to use mat2cell...
C = mat2cell(X, size(X,1)/13.*ones(13,1), 2);
Each cell of C now contains a 29241x2 double. C{1} returns the first array, C{2} the second, etc.

In MATLAB it is much faster to keep your data together, and learn to use indices to access the parts that you want to work with. Or you could split the data into a cell array (as Greig suggested) or a structure array.
Dynamically creating new variables is not recommended in MATLAB, and if you do this you will find it a battle to get lots of basic things done. MATLAB works best when you keep your data together, and learn to perform your operations on whole arrays, including operation vectorization and array preallocation.
In case you are interested, here are some pages explaining why dynamically assigning variable names is a really bad idea in MATLAB:
