You can put the layer settings in a setups environment and flush the content when the page backgrounds are applied
with the setups key for \setupbackground.
\definelayer[letterhead][width=\paperwidth,height=\paperheight]
\startsetups[letterhead]
\ifnum\rawcountervalue[userpage]=1
\setlayerframed[letterhead][x=\backspace,y=1cm][width=\textwidth,height=2cm,align={middle,lohi}]{First page}
\else
\setlayerframed[letterhead][x=\backspace,y=1cm][width=\textwidth,height=2cm,align={middle,lohi}]{Second page}
\fi
\stopsetups
\setupbackgrounds[page][background=letterhead,setups=letterhead]
\starttext
\dorecurse{3}{\page[empty]}
\stoptext
