For example: \kern, \parindent and so on. Rephrasing the question, can LuaMetaTeX/ConTeXt compile
plain TeX files. If yes, how can I do that?

You mix up two different things here.

1. Plain TeX is a collection of TeX macros like ConTeXt or LaTeX.

2. LuaMetaTeX is a program like pdfTeX or LuaTeX which provides commands which are used by above mentioned collections to create macros.

Even though ConTeXt provides some commands which available in plain TeX not all of the are supported which means you can't process plain TeX documents.

On the other hand commands which are provided by the engine like \parindent can be used in a ConTeXt document but higher level mechanism like \setupindenting are the better choice.
