Something like that, yes. But it depends a little on what you
want to do: because \currentmainlanguage expands, you will
get the value that is active during the first scan of the
lua code block, which may not be what you want, but it is hard
to judge without the actual use case.

(Suggestion: Wouldn't be nice to have function(s) or variable(s) like
e.g. 'context.environment["currentmainlanguage"]' or something like
this?)

Yes, agreed, something like that would be useful. The same applies to
some other things, like color and active modes. Some of these are
probably there already, but it would be nice if they were documented.

it's not so hard to interface that but we need to pick up the current value

    \ctxlua{tex.sprint(languages.numbers[1])}

however, tex does not privide access to the current language so i'd have to introduce an extra counter at the tex end

anyhow, for the moment you can use

languages.numbers[tex.count.mainlanguagenumber]

which probably gives you wat you want: en
