This depends. Normally, this construct would not be a separate
entity, but the two tied chords and the two g's would be part of a
larger voice:
one = \notes\relative c'' {
c d e f
...
<c e> ~ <c e>
...
}
two = \notes\relative c'' {
...
...
g g
...
}
and you'd combine them onto one staff:
\context Staff=upper < \one \two >
In a `chord' like this, where one note isn't tied, you must have two
voices, because you must have two stems (up and down, or one note
column one shifted horizontally). It is common practice not to print
all ties in a chord: if you don't put these two voices on different
stems, you're making it an unsolvable (ambiguous) puzzle for the
reader.
