There is no easy way to do just that (afaict, other than placing the Tie-
Engraver in the Staff context?), but most times I fiddle a bit with voiceOne, 
voiceTwo etc. This is one solution:

<<
  {
    \times 2/3 { es8 d c_~ }
    \voiceTwo
    <c es>2
    \voiceOne
    f4
  }
  \\ {
    g,4
    \voiceOne
    bes'2
    \voiceTwo
    d4
  } 
>>

The tie is now just in the same Voice, but by using some \voiceOne and 
\voiceTwo commands, they swap direction at the tie point.

The underscore before the tie forces it down.
