Sure,
\defineoverlay
[somename]
[{\externalfigure
[somefile]
[width=\overlaywidth,
height=\overlayheight]}]
\setupbackgrounds[page][background=somename]
You can have many of them, actually in each area ([text][text] and so
on), also stacked:
background={somename,nextpage}
with \defineoverlay[nextpage][\overlaybutton{nextpage}]
I think I'll make a \overlayfigure{name} too that defaults to the
width/height.
(currently I'm playing with foregrounds too, which is needed for
advanced graphics, spanning overlays.)
