My '19 GLS 450 sits even front & rear so I'd say it is not normal. If it only happens after parking while other times it doesn't then it is likely leaking down. This is my first Airmatic vehicle so I don't have other advice on where to start with repairs other than suggesting to see if there are any YouTube videos on repairs unless you plan to let a repair shop handle it.

Had the same issue with an X5. Turned out to be rear air suspension leak.

Read my post here about replacing the rear shocks DIY https://mbworld.org/forums/gls-class...ml#post8611151
The rubber becomes super worn out/stretched on older rear airmatic shocks so that at rest the rear looks like yours (deflated, effectively). Can also cause a leak since the rubber is so distorted. Would get you some new rear shocks.
