Have you looked at http://wiki.contextgarden.net/HTML_and_ConTeXt which explains how Saji converted a wiki to (informl) to pdf using ConTeXt. I do not know about Drupal, but similar thing should work. There is also Pandoc which can convert Markdown syntax to ConTeXt. It can also convert html to markdown, so in principle you can use it as html to context converter. (Of course, with this approach you are limited to only things which markdown can capture).
