\definepapersize
   [label]
   [width=10cm,
    height=3cm]

\setuppapersize
   [label]
   [A4]

% either use:

% \setuplayout [nx=2,ny=8]

% or use

\setuppapersize [nx=2,ny=8] \setuparranging [XY]

% sample

\starttext

\showframe

\startstandardmakeup
   test test
\stopstandardmakeup

\startstandardmakeup
   more more
\stopstandardmakeup

\stoptext

(there is also an interactive interface to this, but i've no time to 
explain that now)
