This isn't possible with the XY arrangement but when you use two documents,
one with the labels and another one where you arrange them.
Document 1:
\definepapersize[label][width=30mm,height=20mm]
\setuppapersize [label][label]
\starttext
...
\stoptext
Document 2:
\definemeasure[topspace] [\dimexpr(210mm-31mm*5)/2\relax]
\definemeasure[backspace][\dimexpr(297mm-20mm*10)/2\relax]
\setuplayout[page][topspace=\measure{topspace},backspace=\measure{backspace}]
\setuplayout[page]
\starttext
\combinepages[Document 1][nx=5,ny=10,distance=1mm,alternative=vertical]
\stoptext
