That would be a bad idea. First of all - it's much better to install
minimals in parallel. If nothing else, if the latest beta breaks, you
will still have a working ConTeXt somewhere. But the main reason is
that even if you put the latest ConTeXt into TEXMFHOME, you will still
experience problems because:
- you need the latest luatex
- you need the latest mtxrun script
- you need to fix texmfcnf.lua (you could do this without breaking the
rest of TL though, but you need to do it manually)

This is usually the folder where your system stores fonts. LuaTeX can
already find all the fonts in TEXMF tree, you probably want to tell
LuaTeX where all the other fonts are. If you don't need any other
fonts but those that are shipped with TL, you may leave this variable
empty.
