Feelings can be attached to the act, the moment, or the memories of another time in the relationship ... so the short answer is, yes you can still be intimate. And yes, you should be wondering about his motives.
If you are still having sex with him, possibly even more frequent, and 'better' sex ... than what motivation would he have to actually try to work on and repair the framework of the marriage outside of the bedroom?
