I hope I understand your question correctly.  You could either use 
chords in one voice and skips in the other, or you could explicitly set 
\voiceOne or \voiceTwo or \oneVoice in both voices.  You will get 
warnings about clashing note columns if you do this, hence the 
"ignore-collision" override.  I made an example where I use chords in 
the first bar and then separate  voices in the second bar, and I can't 
see any difference in the output.  Hope that helps :)
