How about using a second voice, introduced temporarily while
you want the horns in two parts, like this? It
automatically makes the second horn stems go down, but this
seems no bad thing.
\new Staff <<
\key e \major
\time 4/4
\relative c'' {
R1 | % Both
<<
{R1 | b2.\f a4 | gis4 } % Horn 1
\\
{a2.\f gis4 | fis2. fis4 | fis } % Horn 2
>>
fis2 e | % Both
}
