You can combine two voices
and use spacers instead of rests

\version "2.19.81"

stemUpNotes = \relative c' {
   s8 c4 c8
   s8 s s c8
}
stemDownNotes = \relative c' {
   b8 s4 s8
   b8[ b] b s
}

\score {
   \new Staff
    \with { \override StaffSymbol.line-count =  #1 }
    {
      \clef percussion
      \numericTimeSignature
      \autoBeamOff
      << \stemUpNotes \\ \stemDownNotes >>
    }
}
