Since it is stated in the manual to look at core-not.tex, I did so
and found the command \resetnummer[...]. I have no idea if this is ok
to use (but I guess it is not, since Hans always comes up with a
better solution ;->) but here is the simple hack anyway:
\setupfootnotes[conversion=romannumerals]
\starttext
\startfrontmatter
Some text\footnote{interesting}.
\stopfrontmatter
\resetnummer[footnote]
\setupfootnotes[conversion=numbers]
\startbodymatter
Some text\footnote{interesting}.
\stopbodymatter
\startbackmatter
Some text\footnote{interesting}.
\stopbackmatter
\stoptext

Then give this a try:
\setupfootnotes[conversion=romannumerals,way=bypart]
\starttext
\part {one}
Some text\footnote{interesting}.
\part {two}
\setupfootnotes[conversion=numbers]
Some text\footnote{interesting}.
\part {three}
Some text\footnote{interesting}.
\stoptext
