Margin texts are flushed with the next paragraph but you can start one 
for the points only with the \dontleavehmode command.

\define[1]\Info
   {\dontleavehmode\margindata[inmargin]{\rotate{#1}}}

You can use the \framed command to reserve the space for the answer and 
place with the score with a layer as background for the frame.

\setupmargindata[inmargin][style={\ss\tfx},location=outer,align=middle]
\setupmarginframed[inmargin][align=middle,location=outer]

\definelayer[infolayer][width=\framedwidth,height=\framedheight]

\startsetups[infolayer:place]
     
\setlayer[infolayer][preset=middleright]{\rotate{\getvariable{infotext}{points}}}
\stopsetups

\defineframed[infobox][frame=off,width=max,background=infolayer,setups=infolayer:place]

\define[2]\Info
   {\par
    \setvariable{infotext}{points}{#2}%
    \infobox[height=#1]{}}

\starttext

\startitemize[n]
     \starthead{Question 1}
         \Info{9cm}{20 \periods[3] 15 \periods[3] 10}
     \stophead
     \starthead{Question 2}
         \Info{8cm}{20 \periods[3] 15 \periods[3] 10}
     \stophead
     \starthead{Question 3}
         \Info{6cm}{20 \periods[3] 15 \periods[3] 10}
     \stophead
\stopitemize

\stoptext
