Yes it is, that particular model just received certification in October. In the future it is a better idea to never go to the bathroom while in an airplane and always have your seatbelt on.

Oh ok, so it's not related to the past issues...seems an isolated incident with a structural provision for an additional door.
Someone messed up or some fastener failed on the sheeting material, but thankfully the structural area would've been significantly stronger due to the optional doorway provision .
But those 737s have always held up well in structural failure events historically.

The FAA ordered the temporary grounding of certain Boeing 737 MAX 9 aircraft operated by U.S. airlines or in U.S. territory.
“The FAA is requiring immediate inspections of certain Boeing 737 MAX 9 planes before they can return to flight,” FAA Administrator Mike Whitaker said. “Safety will continue to drive our decision-making as we assist the NTSB’s investigation into Alaska Airlines Flight 1282.”
The Emergency Airworthiness Directive (EAD) requires operators to inspect affected aircraft before further flight. The required inspections will take around four to eight hours per aircraft.
The EAD will affect approximately 171 airplanes worldwide.
