Do you mean MKII or MKIV? For MKII the answer is no. MKIV can - to a certain extent - read and interpret fontconfig's XML configuration file. The real question is whether ConTeXt finds the right file. On windows there is fonts.conf used by XeTeX and it might be that MKIV reads that file, but I'm not sure. There is no seriously technical reason, it's more that developers aren't too eager to have dependencies on external libraries. And the fact that at least on Windows and Mac the system fonts are being searched for on their standard locations.
