What about:

{
   c'^\markup {
        \concat {
          \musicglyph #"scripts.downbow" \hspace #2 \musicglyph #"scripts.upbow"
        }
   }
}
If you are happy with the default spacing between "words" in markups, then you can simplify the markup command into

c^\markup{\musicglyph #"scripts.downbow" \musicglyph #"scripts.upbow"}

A final alternative, if you for example have a whole note and want to align the upbow with a note in some other part that comes on the third beat, then you could attach it to a spacer note:
\score{
<<
\new Staff \relative c' {
  c1 | << {c^\downbow } {s2 s^\upbow} >> | c
  }
\new Staff \relative c' {c2 e | g8 a g f e2 | c'1 }
>>
}
