The caption can be forced to the same width as the image with the \setupcaption
command,
the vertical alignment of the images/text can be controlled with the location
key but you have
to ensure both images have the same height.
\useMPlibrary[dum]
\starttext
\startplacefigure[location=nonumber]
\setupcaption[figure][width=max]
\startfloatcombination[location=top]
\startplacefigure[title={Some description of A which spans
multiple lines}]
\externalfigure[A][width=4cm]
%\framed[frame=off,offset=none,width=.5\textwidth]{\externalfigure[A][width=4cm]}
\stopplacefigure
\startplacefigure[title={Some description of B}]
\externalfigure[B][width=4cm]
%\framed[frame=off,offset=none,width=.5\textwidth]{\externalfigure[B][width=4cm]}
\stopplacefigure
\stopfloatcombination
\stopplacefigure
\stoptext
