I don't know, if it's _possible_, but I would never do so.
Opposed to you I think it would make all _more_ intricate.

You used R1*x already. Use R1 instead of r1, too.
Whole notes are never centered in LilyPond and I've never seen
centered whole notes in any printed score.

Btw, compiling your score, several `warning: unterminated tieĀ“ are occuring.
Perhaps you mean \laissezVibrer ?
