You can’t, markings are only reliable when you use them in the header of footer 
of the page.

To access the values of a heading you can use the \structurevariable and 
\namedstructurevariable commands.

\starttext

\chapter{Chapter}

A: \doifsomethingelse{\namedstructurevariable{section}{title}}
  {\namedstructurevariable{section}{title}}
  {\namedstructurevariable{chapter}{title}}

B: \structurevariable{title}

\section{Section}

A: \doifsomethingelse{\structurevariable{section}{title}}
  {\namedstructurevariable{section}{title}}
  {\namedstructurevariable{chapter}{title}}

B: \structurevariable{title}

\subsection{Subsection}

A: \doifsomethingelse{\structurevariable{section}{title}}
  {\namedstructurevariable{section}{title}}
  {\namedstructurevariable{chapter}{title}}

B: \structurevariable{title}

\stoptext
