Nope. As Mojca mentioned, PDF does not account for this kind of thing. I
mentioned those tools as a basis for constructing an entire document from
scratch. They have automatic page referencing similar to Context, but not in
a post-hoc fashion.
If they are only copy editing, I think you would be best served by exporting
to xhtml. I generally write all my documents in Markdown and convert using
Pandoc, so I'm not familiar with Context's xhtml capacities.
If they are doing layout.. Ouch.
