hmm are you sure that there isn't a way to
choose a graphic mode for you output that do what you want ?
Otherwise, maybe you can make a pdf -> ps,
apply a matrix transformation with ghostscript  to this ps and reconvert to
pdf
Or you can use something like
\starttext
\starTEXPage
\externalfigure[slides.pdf][page=1,width=...,height=...]\page
\externalfigure[slides.pdf][page=2,width=...,height=...]\page
\externalfigure[slides.pdf][page=3,width=...,height=...]\page
\externalfigure[slides.pdf][page=4,width=...,height=...]\page
...
\stopTEXPage
\stoptext
