You can set custom symbols for individual items with \txt but this won't 
increment the item counter. To continue the counter and replace some 
symbol you have to create your own number conversion.

\defineconversion [kevin] [1,k,3,4,5,6,7,8,9]

\starttext

\startitemize[n]
\item A
\txt{k} B
\item C
\stopitemize

\blank[2*line]

\startitemize[kevin]
\item A
\item B
\item C
\stopitemize

\stoptext
