I ran the next code on the Live Context site and it gave me "first
column" on the first page and "second column" on page 2.
\starttext
\dorecurse{4}{\input tufte}
\startcolumns[n=2]
first column
\column
second column
\stopcolumns
\stoptext
But, as Hans Hagen wrote in another reply:

However, I seem to remember columnsets as fairly complex.
