I found a solution: adding a negative penalty at the end of the
inbetween parameter:
\setupnote[footnote][
alternative=serried,
paragraph=yes,
inbetween= \emdash{} \penalty-1000,
location=page,
before={\blank[2*line]}]
The footnotes' area was like this:
---------
^a this is the text of the first footnote --- ^b the second... --- ^c
third footnote
Now it is like this:
---------
^a this is the text of the first footnote --- ^b the second... ---
^c third footnote
The first line ends with an em dash: it's not so fine, but it's better
than a letter (footnote number) split from the text of the footnote by a
line break.
