You can replace the # with \letterhash but you method is wrong, the first thing 
is that
\luacode is already defined in the core and it can be used as replacement for 
\ctxlua
and second it’s better to separate a lua function and the call to the function.

Instead of writing the function in a luacode environment you can also put it
in a external file which is then loaded in your document/module. You should
also use a namespace for your functions.

\startluacode

userdata= userdataor { }
userdata.fulvio = userdata.fulvio or { }

function userdata.fulvio.size()
local t = {1, 2, 3}
tex.print(#t)
end

\stopluacode

\def\SizeOne{\ctxlua {userdata.fulvio.size()}}
\def\SizeTwo{\luacode{userdata.fulvio.size()}}

\starttext

\startluacode
   local t = {1, 2, 3}
   tex.print(#t)
\stopluacode

\starttabulate
\NC ctxlua  \EQ \SizeOne \NC\NR
\NC luacode \EQ \SizeTwo \NC\NR
\stoptabulate

\stoptext
