The target nonland permanent card still counts toward the number of permanent cards in your graveyard for the purposes of Squirming Emergence.

2023-11-10wotc

Some descend triggered abilities include intervening "if" clauses (i.e. "if you have [four or eight] permanent cards in your graveyard" in the middle of the ability). Each of these abilities checks your graveyard at the moment it would trigger to see if it does. If you don't have the required number of permanent cards in your graveyard at that time, the ability doesn't trigger at all. If it does trigger, it will check again as it tries to resolve. If you don't have the required number of permanent cards in your graveyard at that time, the ability won't resolve and none of its effects will happen.

2023-11-10wotc

Cards with the ability word "fathomless descent" have abilities that care how many permanent cards are in your graveyard.
