You can use the `command` key to hook in a custom macro which does
the placement.

\setuppagenumbering
  [alternative=doublesided,
   location={header, margin},
   style=bold,
   command=\PageNumberCommand]

\starttexdefinition PageNumberCommand #pageno
  \signalrightpage
  \doifrightpageelse
    {\rightaligned{#pageno}}
    {\leftaligned{#pageno}}
\stoptexdefinition
