then you can just prevent the dynamics printing on one voice:

\version "2.12.3"
<<
  \new Voice = "A" \with {
    \remove "New_dynamic_engraver"
     % it could be "Dynamic_engraver" in 2.13, I'm not sure
  }

  \relative c'' {
      \voiceOne
      a\f b\> c d\p
  } \\
  \new Voice = "B" \relative c' {
      \voiceTwo
      c\f d\> e f\p
  }

I actually don't know if what you requested is possible at all with Lily.
I might be just speaking too much...
