It gives a warning and example:

Because these marks are bound to notes, you must use spacer notes if multiple
marks are needed during one note


         c\< c\! d\> e\!
         << f1 { s4 s4\< s4\! \> s4\! } >>

When I implemented something similar I got broken output - the score was 
rendered
into two staves[1].  Checking with the polyphony docs at:
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.10/Documentation/user/lilypond/Single-staff-polyphony#Single-staff-polyphony

Shows
         << f1 { s4 s4\< s4\! \> s4\! } >>
should be written as
         << { f1 } \\ { s4 s4\< s4\! \> s4\! } >>

Indeed this produces the expected, as shown in the example, output.
