Sure:

\definetextbackground[GeneralDocument][
        location=paragraph,
        topoffset=1.0cm,
        bottomoffset=1.0cm,
        leftoffset=1.0cm,
        rightoffset=1.0cm,
        before={
            \blank[2*big]
        },
        after={
            \blank[2*big]
        },
        style=small,
        corner=round,
        frame=on]

\starttext
This is some text outside of a text background.

\startGeneralDocument
\dorecurse{10}{\input tufte \par \input knuth \par}
\stopGeneralDocument

This is more text outside of a text background.
\stoptext
