You can remove the stem from the upper staff notes, and extend the stem
from the lower staff notes.

stemRemove = \once \override Stem #'length =1
noFlag = \once \override Stem #'flag-style = #'no-flag
stemExtend = \once \override Stem #'length = #10

Of course you need to adjust the length of the stem until it looks
good...

If you want the chords to be beamed it gets a little more complicated. I
don't quite remember how I did it but the above should work in your
example.
