I'm sure there is also a "cleaner" TeX way, but I'm not experienced

I think you misunderstood my issue: your Lua way does the same thing than
my TeX way: it displays:

ONE Cool
2 Cat
3 Mouse

but that is NOT what I want. What I want is:

1 Cool
2 Cat
3 Mouse

So I need to check if the chapter label has been set empty or not by the
user, because it is not empty (let's say the user chose the string
"CHAPTER~" for the chapter label) I want to display this:

CHAPTER ONE Cool
CHAPTER 2 Cat
CHAPTER 3 Mouse

The way to do that is to check if the variable \currentstructurelabel is
empty, so the code must be:

Why not just check the labeltext?

  \define[1]\MyConversion
      {\doifelse{#1}{1}{ONE}{#1}}

  \define\CheckedConversion % #1 number
      {\doiftextelse{\labeltexts{chapter}}\MyConversion\numbers}

  \defineconversion[CheckedConversion][\CheckedConversion]

  \setuphead[chapter][conversion=CheckedConversion]

  \doifmode{label}{\setuplabeltext[chapter=CHAPTER~]}
  \starttext
        \chapter{Cool}
        \chapter{Cat}
        \chapter{Mouse}
  \stoptext


compile with and without --mode=label.
