Thank you Hans! This workaround does the job.

For those interested: The \zwnj can be prepended automatically to
every node by setting "every node/.add code=\zwnj". The updated MWE
now is:

\usemodule[tikz]
\tikzset{every node/.add code=\zwnj}
\starttext
  \starttikzpicture
    \node {\color[red]{red}};
    \node[xshift=30] {\color[red]{not red}};
  \stoptikzpicture
\stoptext

Cheers,
Christoph
