I tested it now myself and what you want doesn’t work in this way. As you can see
in the example below “headcommand=\tex” does work when you also use
“location=command” but only with some limitations, e.g. the font is wrong and
you loose also the option the change the location of the title.

%\definedescription[abc][location=command,headcommand=\quotation]
\definedescription[abc][location=command,headcommand=\tex]

\starttext

\abc{startext} not working \tex{stoptext}

\stoptext
