You can use the \resetcharacterspacing command to disable the spacing.
\setcharacterspacing[frenchpunctuation]
\definestartstop
[EnglishTitle]
[commands=\resetcharacterspacing,
style=italic]
\starttext
text: «text» \EnglishTitle{text: «text»}
\stoptext

The \url and \hyphenatedurl need to be fixed.
