This is not a positive answer, but in Matthew 9:1 it says "So He (Jesus) got into a boat, crossed over and came to His own city" Jesus considered Capernaum His city as He ministered extensively there. Peter, Andrew, John and James also lived there. Then in Matthew 9:9 we are told that as Jesus passed on from there (Capernaum) He saw a man named Matthew sitting at the tax office. Assuming Matthew lived in the town where he worked, that would mean he lived in Capernaum.
