Your code with the matrix is not correct because your nodes are on same row, they are separated by & and there is only one \ in your matrix.
If you want to use a matrix, I propose following code which loads matrix library and uses a matrix of nodes to simplify syntax.
But I think second solution is better, just use above=0pt of ... and you'll get two nodes one above the other.
documentclass[tikz, margin=1pt]{standalone}
usetikzlibrary{positioning, matrix}
tikzset{ball/.style={draw, circle, minimum size=.1cm}}
begin{document}
begin{tikzpicture}
matrix[matrix of nodes, nodes={draw, ball}, row sep=0pt]{
b2\
b1\
};
end{tikzpicture}
begin{tikzpicture}
node[ball] (b1) {b1};
node[ball, above=0pt of b1] (b2) {b2};
end{tikzpicture}
end{document}

I want to finally make a grid of balls that is why I used matrix in the first place. I just reduced it to the essential part for the MWE.
