I don't have a definitive answer, but looking at the built-in ConTeXt modules will give you an important clue: the names SerifCaps, SansCaps, and MonoCaps appear in a number of places, e.g. in font-map.tex: \definebodyfont [14.4pt,...] [tf=Serif sa 1.06, .... sc=SerifCaps sa 1.06] But the variants you are trying to use don't occur at all, which suggests that ConTeXt has no way to recognize the combination of small caps with bold or italic.
