You can use a loop to create the frames, the only thing you have to be aware is
how to access the counter loop iteration. In most cases you can get the current
iteration of the loop with \recurselevel but this doesn’t work for animation 
because
each frame is saved in a symbol with \definesymbol[<frame>][<code>] without
expanding the content.

To fix this you can expand the content with \expanded{\frame{… \recurselevel …}}
or simpler by using “#1” instead of \recurselevel to access the counter.

The braces around each frame as in your example are only one method to set
the content for each frame (it emulates the \startoverlay and \startcombination
input), when you use a loop you have to use \frame{…} or \startframe … 
\stopframe
to set the content for each frame.


Example:

\usemodule[animation]

\setupinteraction[state=start]

\starttext

\startanimation[menu=yes,framerate=10]
\dorecurse{99}
  {\startframe
   \definedfont[Mono sa 4]\twodigits{#1}%
   \stopframe}
\stopanimation

\stoptext
