I believe you can do what you want by setting the
outside-staff-priority to ##f and then using Y-offset to move the
accent.

%%%
\version "2.20.0"

\relative c {
   \time 3/4
   \mergeDifferentlyDottedOn
   <<
     { <g'' c f>4\arpeggio e' d }
     \\
     { g,8.
       -\tweak outside-staff-priority ##f
       -\tweak Y-offset -3
       _> dis16 a2
     }
   >> |
}
%%%
