I was wrong, it only inherits read access permission.
However I got an useful solution from one of postfix developers,
LaMont Jones:

Code not tested

# Mailman/MTA/Postfix.py
def _update_maps():
  # ...
  acmd = mm_cfg.POSTFIX_ALIAS_CMD + ' ' + ALIASFILE + \
         '&& chmod g+w ' + ALIASFILE
  # ...
