You can check modes in Lua:

context --arguments="size=small" --mode=print test.tex

\starttext

Print mode: \doifmodeelse{print}{yes}{no}

\startluacode
	if tex.modes['print'] then
		context("Print mode is enabled")
	else
		context("Print mode is disabled")
	end
\stopluacode

\doifenvelse{size}
  {\processaction
     [\env{size}]
     [  small=>Small size,
       medium=>Medium size,
          big=>Big size,
      unknown=>Other size: \env{size}]}
  {No value “size”}

\stoptext
