(pre)loading the typescripts 'fixes' the issue.
        \usebodyfont[termes]

See below a modified version of your MWE:

\definefallbackfamily[story][serif][notoserif]
[range={greekandcoptic,greekextended},force=yes]
\definefontfamily[story][serif][TeX Gyre Schola]
\definefontfamily[story][sans][modern]
\definefontfamily[story][mono][modern]
\definefontfamily[story][mm][TeX Gyre Pagella Math]
\setupbodyfont[story,11pt]
\usebodyfont[termes]

\definestartstop
    [blockquote]
    [before={\blank\startnarrower\setupwhitespace[2pt]\setupindenting[none]},
     style={\switchtobodyfont[termes]},
     after={\stopnarrower\blank\indenting[next]}]

\starttext
\input knuth

    \startblockquote
    \input knuth
    \stopblockquote

    this is normal text
    \par
    {\bf this is bold}
    \par
    {\it this is italics}

    \startblockquote
    this is normal text
    \par
    {\bf this is bold}
    \par
    {\it this is italics}
    \stopblockquote
\stoptext

Best,
