You can increase the spacing between notes without an additional voice 
by changing the Stem X-extent, but this approach doesn't work to reduce 
the spacing:

\version "2.15.25"

stemspace = #(define-music-function (parser location extent) (pair?) #{
    \once \override Staff.Stem #'X-extent = #extent
#})

\relative c' {
    c4 c \stemspace #'(0 . 4) f e
}
