The following works:

%-----
upper = \relative c' {
  e'1\arpeggio |
}

lower = \relative c' {
  e1\arpeggio |
}

guitarStaffOne = \new Staff \with { \consists Span_arpeggio_engraver } {
  \set Staff.connectArpeggios = ##t
  <<
    \new Voice { \voiceOne \upper }
    \new Voice { \voiceTwo \lower }
  >>
}

\score {
  \guitarStaffOne
  \layout {}
}
%-----


But how can I achieve the same result using \context instead of \new ?
[I need the capacity to refer to a *named* context (because I set things
differently in different files).]
I tried the following (but that doesn't work, although it seems to be a
reasonable trial):

%-----
upper = \relative c' {
  e'1\arpeggio |
}

lower = \relative c' {
  e1\arpeggio |
}

guitarStaffTwo = \context Staff \with { \consists Span_arpeggio_engraver } = 
"Guitar" {
  \set Staff.connectArpeggios = ##t
  <<
    \new Voice { \voiceOne \upper }
    \new Voice { \voiceTwo \lower }
  >>
}

\score {
  \guitarStaffTwo
  \layout {}
}
%-----
