It looks like there is no build in command to enable arule between the
column but you could use MetaPost to draw a background for every column.

\usemodule[visual]

\definecolumnset[example][n=4,distance=5mm]

\startuseMPgraphic{columnrule}
path p ; p := unitsquare xyscaled (OverlayWidth+5mm,OverlayHeight) ;
draw lrcorner p -- urcorner p ;
setbounds currentpicture to p ;
\stopuseMPgraphic

\defineoverlay[columnrule][\useMPgraphic{columnrule}]

\setupcolumnset[example][1,2,3][background=columnrule]

\starttext

\startcolumnset[example]
\dorecurse{30}{\fakewords{50}{100}}
\stopcolumnset

\stoptext

Greetings
Wolfgang
