You can use multiple voices, like in the following example:

\version "2.4.2"

\score {
    \new Staff \relative c'' {
        \time 2/8

        \set Score.tupletSpannerDuration = #(ly:make-moment 1 8)
        \override Score.TupletBracket #'bracket-visibility = ##f

        << \times 2/3 { \stemDown c16 e g e g c } \\
           \times 2/3 { \override TupletBracket #'number-visibility = ##f
                        \stemUp s16 e,8 s16 g8 } >>
    }

    \layout { raggedright = ##t }
}

Hope this is what you are looking for.  Maybe you will have to correct 
this score in order to run under Lily 2.2.5.

Maurizio.
