Was messing about a bit.  Does this work on your side?

%%%%
\version "2.22.0"

\paper {
  score-markup-spacing =
  #'((basic-distance . 0) (minimum-distance . 0)
     (padding . 4) (stretchability . 0))

  markup-system-spacing =
  #'((basic-distance . 0) (minimum-distance . 0)
     (padding . 4) (stretchability . 0))
}

\score { { b'4 } \layout { indent = 0 } }

\markup
  \with-color #green \filled-box #'(0 . 10) #'(0 . 5) #0

\score { { b'4 } \layout { indent = 0 } }

\markup
  \with-dimensions #'(0 . 0) #'(-1 . -4)
  \general-align #Y #UP
  \with-color #red \filled-box #'(0 . 10) #'(0 . 5) #0

\score { { b'4 } \layout { indent = 0 } }
