A first step --- still quite similar to your macro. Hope it helps just for now.
\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided]
\definelayer[bg][x=0mm,y=-3mm,width=\dimexpr(\paperwidth+3mm),height=\dimexpr(\paperheight+6mm)]
\def\DoublePicAt#1#2{
%\startpostponing[#2]
\page[right] % tried also makeups...
\resetlayer[bg]
\setlayer[bg]{\externalfigure[#1][height=\dimexpr(\paperheight+6mm)]}
\setupbackgrounds[page][background=bg]
\strut
\page[right]
\setuppagenumber[state=start]
\resetlayer[bg]
\setlayer[bg]{\externalfigure[#1-back][height=\dimexpr(\paperheight+6mm)]}
\setupbackgrounds[page][background=bg]
\strut
\page
%\stoppostponing
}
\starttext
\startpostponing[5]
\DoublePicAt{hacker}{5}
\stoppostponing
\dorecurse{30}{
\section{Knuth \recurselevel}
\input knuth
}
\stoptext
