You can use any TeX with any web application server, if you can
execute a TeX binary (e.g. normally not in a shared hosting
environment). Use your system's templating engine to produce ConTeXt
files instead of HTML and run ConTeXt on them. Getting the paths right
might be a major problem - it took me some weeks of debugging, since
also my process supervision tools played a role.
I don't know Drupal (I use Django), but if you look into that DruTeX,
it's probably rather simple.

Greetlings, Hraban
