I think that you are confused by the terminology.

ConTeXt MkII is the collection of context maros that work with pdftex and 
xetex engine. ConTeXt MkIV is the collection of context macros that work 
with luatex engine.

texexec is a ruby wrapper to run ConTeXt macros. context is a lua wrapper 
to run ConTeXt macros. Both wrappers can run either any engine

texexec --pdftex
texexec --xetex
texexec --luatex

or

context --pdftex
context --xetex
context --luatex

Just that texexec defaults to --pdftex while context defaults to --luatex

The above options should work with both TL and minimals.
