While reading the documentation I spotted something similar from which I
derived this solution:

\setupinteraction[state=start]
\def\squeeze#1%
  {
    \goto{#1} [url(tel:\ctxlua{context(string.gsub("#1", " ", ""))})]
  }

\starttext
  Call \squeeze{01234 56789}
\stoptext

With kind regards,

Michael
