'guix gc -C' will delete all packages that were installed using Nix. Is
there a way to change this behavior?

The GC does not make any difference between Guix and Nix. It deletes
anything that is no longer referenced from a GC root.
If Guix and Nix were configured with the same --localstatedir (info
"(guix) Requirements"), then their GC roots are in the same place and
everything works fine.
Could it be that you used different --localstatedir values?
