It depends on what successive pages are. One way of doing it is to define a
left margin [1] and process 2 and 3 as columns and using a a4 landscape
papersize. You can use \setuptexttexts to get text into the margin.

\setuppapersize[A4,landscape][A4,landscape]

\setuplayout
  [backspace=6.7cm,
   leftmargin=4cm,
   leftmargindistance=1.7cm,
   width=22cm,
   grid=yes,
   height=middle]

\setupcolumns
  [distance=1cm]

\setuptexttexts
  [margin]
  [\vbox to \vsize{\topskipcorrection\getbuffer[ann]\vfill}]
  []

\starttext

\startcolumns

\startbuffer[ann]
  Some Text
  \blank[line]
  Some More Text
\stopbuffer

\input tufte

\input tufte

\stopcolumns

\stoptext

Of course you need to adapt the buffer occationally.
