Aditya has just suggested to create a bunch of definitions equal to
those in mathdesign. Mathdesign include three typefaces that have not
been implemented in ConTeXt yet, and I agree that they could (should)
be.

ConTeXt currently has no support for mathpazo (one can always write
it), but it uses pxfonts. I don't know if that's better or worse, but
at least it works out of the box.

As others have already written:
- "Palatino", "Times" (TeX Gyre, actually)
- Lucida (if you have the fonts)
- Iwona, Kurier, Antykwa Torunska
- Euler, Fourier, Concrete Math - never tried it myself

For palatino, times, iwona, kurier (not yet, but should be fixed),
antykwa-torunska, see Yue's and Aditya's answer. In Unicode (xetex,
luatex) you should use
\usetpescript[name]
\setupbodyfont[name,sizeorstyleifneeded]
and in pdfTeX you need
\usetpescript[name][ec]
\setupbodyfont[name,sizeorstyleifneeded]
You can take a look at type-tmf.tex, type-one.tex, type-otf.tex and
math-*.tex in ConTeXt sources.
