The reason, I think, is that you have /usr/bin in your PATH before
/opt/gcc-13.1.0-aarch64.

From the release notes at
https://github.com/simonjwright/distributing-gcc/releases/tag/gcc-13.1.0-aarch64-2,

   Setting PATH

   PATH needs to be set to include /opt/gcc-13.1.0-aarch64/bin at the front:

   bash

   Insert

   export PATH=/opt/gcc-13.1.0-aarch64/bin:$PATH
   in your ~/.bash_profile_common.

   zsh

   Likewise, but in ~/.zshrc.

/usr/bin/gcc is the exact same compiler as /usr/bin/clang (a hard link,
by the look of it).

   $ /usr/bin/gcc -v
   Apple clang version 14.0.3 (clang-1403.0.22.14.1)
   Target: arm64-apple-darwin22.5.0
   Thread model: posix
   InstalledDir: /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools/usr/bin

   $ /opt/gcc-13.1.0-aarch64/bin/gcc -v
   Using built-in specs.
   COLLECT_GCC=/opt/gcc-13.1.0-aarch64/bin/gcc
   COLLECT_LTO_WRAPPER=/opt/gcc-13.1.0-aarch64/libexec/gcc/aarch64-apple-darwin21/13.1.0/lto-wrapper
   Target: aarch64-apple-darwin21
   Configured with: [...]
   Thread model: posix
   Supported LTO compression algorithms: zlib
   gcc version 13.1.0 (GCC)

I think you need to fix the PATH problem, then build with

   $ alr build -- -XTARGET=aarch64-apple-darwin21
