\unexpanded\def\boxed#1{\boxframed{#1}}

ok, i'll make 'm unexpandable in the core

\starttext

\boxed{Boxed in text}

\startMPcode
  draw textext("\boxed{boxed in metapost}") ;
%draw textext("\boxframed{boxed in metapost}") ;
\stopMPcode

\stoptext

\starttext

\startMPcode
    picture p ; p := textext("boxed in metapost") ;
    draw p ;
    draw (boundingbox p) randomized 9pt withcolor blue;
\stopMPcode

\stoptext

for more complex cases use image as in

picture p ; p := image (
        draw this;
        drae that;
) ;
