Hans can add a check for math mode for the symbol:

\unprotect

\unexpanded\def\checkedtextcelsius
  {\ifmmode
     \phys_units_text_celsius
   \else\iffontchar\font"2103\relax
     ℃\else\phys_units_text_celsius
   \fi\fi}

\unexpanded\def\checkedtextfahrenheit
  {\ifmmode
     \phys_units_text_fahrenheit
   \else\iffontchar\font"2109\relax
     ℉\else\phys_units_text_fahrenheit
   \fi\fi}

\protect

\setupbodyfont[dejavu]

\starttext
  Temperature : \unit{100 celsius} works.\par
  Temperature : \m{\unit{100 celsius}} doesn't work.
\stoptext
