MkIV:

\definenamespace
  [mojca]
  [type=module,
   name=mojca,
   command=yes,
   setup=yes,
   parent=mojca]

\starttext

\setupmojca
  [oldkey=OLD,
   newkey=\mojcaparameter{oldkey}]

\starttabulate
\NC Old \EQ \mojcaparameter{oldkey} \NC\NR
\NC New \EQ \mojcaparameter{newkey} \NC\NR
\stoptabulate

\setupmojca
  [newkey=NEW]

\starttabulate
\NC Old \EQ \mojcaparameter{oldkey} \NC\NR
\NC New \EQ \mojcaparameter{newkey} \NC\NR
\stoptabulate

\stoptext
