You need a couple of things:
- \startformula ... \stopformula uses the full local width. You need to use
inline math $ ... $ (I use \startimath ... \stopimath below so that it looks
nicer).
- You need to add location=packed to \startalign so that it does not use extra
horizontal space
- Then you can adjust the vertical location by wrapping everything in a frame.
\starttext
\startitemize[n]
\item
\startframed[align=normal,frame=off,location=high]
\startimath \startalign[n=3,location=packed]
\NC S = \NC T_1 + \NC T_2 + T_3 + \cdots + T_n\NR
\NC S = \NC \NC T_1 + T_2 + \cdots + T_{n - 1} + T_n\NR
\stopalign \stopimath
\stopframed
\stopitemize
\stoptext
