Use \delimitedtext[qq][quotation] to create a new quote command.

You’re wrong the output of '' looks correct but it isn’t as you can see in
the following example. When you write ' context replaces it with ’ which
is together with -- and --- one of the remaining fake ligatures which
can be enabled with the “tlig=yes” in \definefontfeature.
\starttext
\type{''} = ''
\type{”} = ”
\stoptext

One could misuse the translate module for this but I really suggest to move
forward and use direct input of “ and ” or \quotation{…}.
\usemodule[translate]
\translateinput[``][“]
\translateinput[''][”]
\enableinputtranslation
\starttext
``text''
\stoptext
