Searching though the mailinglist for floatcombinations, I came across this discussion ( http://archive.contextgarden.net/message/20100601.084655.c7d6e858.en.html). Taco's solution works just like Hans' code, but again, only in mkii.

With a simple fix in strc-flt.mkvi \startcombination will work but still each figure is to wide and all of them won’t fit on the page.

\def\somelocalfloat % strc-flt.mkvi: was \def\somelocalfloat[#1]%
  {\doglobal\increment\noflocalfloats
   \savebox{localfloats}{\noflocalfloats}{\box\floatbox}}

\setuppapersize[A5][A4,landscape]

\starttext \showframe
 \startfloatcombination [2*2]
   \placefigure{alpha}{\externalfigure[cow.pdf][width=1cm]} 
   \placefigure{beta} {\externalfigure[cow.pdf][width=2cm]} 
   \placefigure{gamma}{\externalfigure[cow.pdf][width=3cm]} 
   \placefigure{delta}{\externalfigure[cow.pdf][width=4cm]} 
 \stopfloatcombination
\stoptext
