Try:

-------------------------------------
\setupindenting[small]

\let\footnoteO\footnote
\def\footnote{\dosingleempty\mydofootnote}
\long\def\mydofootnote[#1]#2{%
   \iffirstargument
     \footnoteO[#1]{\setupindenting[small]#2}%
   \else
     \footnoteO{\setupindenting[small]#2}%
   \fi
}
\def\SomePars{\dorecurse5{\dorecurse{50}{bla }\par}}
\starttext
   \SomePars bla\footnote{\SomePars}
\stoptext
--------------------------------------
