Yes, for the Finder anyway, using AppleScript. And for all other Apps using Keyboard Maestro's Move to Found Image Action to move and right-click at the highlighted item.
First the AppleScript approach (this AppleScript is from @eurobubba in this past post: Has Anyone Figured Out a Way to Replicate the Windows "Menu Key" on a Mac Using KM? - #8 by eurobubba)
.NOTE - this only works in the Finder (but as that was your need, maybe this will do it for you).
Once this Macro has opened the context menu of the selected file, you can select the menu item you want by either having Keyboard Maestro type the first letters of its name or by having Keyboard Maestro simulate arrow keys to move to the item you want.

To invoke the Context Manu in other Apps I made another Macro here: (Has Anyone Figured Out a Way to Replicate the Windows "Menu Key" on a Mac Using KM? - #35 by Zabobon).
I agree. I can't believe Apple haven't assigned a key that just does this. It is one of the few things that Windows (the name that shall not be spoken...) has but the Mac doesn't
