That's a  strange way of  doing things, if I  get it right  what you
mean. If you want to have the number in the margin, you can use

\setupheads [alternative=inmargin]

or you can provide a negative indent for the heads

\setupheads [margin=-2cm]

which has the same effect as indenting everything else.

\setuphead [chapter]
        [
                after=,              % To remove the space
                %after={\blank[1cm]},
                %after={\blank[2cm]},
        ]
