You can use the command key for \setupfloat to apply a macro to the finished 
content of the float.

The purpose of this macro is to save the content and compare the width to the 
width of the text are,
when the figure is wider then the available space use the \leftaligned or 
\rightaligned commands
to let the content protrude to the outer margins.


\setuppagenumbering[alternative=doublesided]

\setuplayout[backspace=4cm,width=12cm]

\definemeasure[Widefigure][\textwidth+\rightmargindistance+\rightmarginwidth]

\setupfloat[figure][command=\FigureCommand]

\define\FigureCommand
  {\dowithnextbox
     {\signalrightpage
      \ifdim\nextboxwd>\textwidth
        
\doifrightpageelse{\leftaligned{\flushnextbox}}{\rightaligned{\flushnextbox}}%
      \else
        \midaligned{\flushnextbox}%
      \fi}
     \hbox}

\showframe

\starttext

\startplacefigure
\framed[width=.8\textwidth,framecolor=red]{Left margin}
\stopplacefigure

\page

\startplacefigure
\framed[width=\measure{Widefigure},framecolor=red]{Left margin}
\stopplacefigure

\input knuth

\page

\startplacefigure
\framed[width=\measure{Widefigure},framecolor=red]{Right margin}
\stopplacefigure

\stoptext
