That idea should have worked, but the ties don’t look quite right. Below is a compilable example.
Rachel
\version "2.19.81"
down = { \change Staff = "bass" \stemUp }
up = {\change Staff = "treble" \stemDown}
\language "english"
Treble = {
<<
\relative c'
{
\set tieWaitForNote = ##t
\down c,8~[ \up <g' bf e>~]
\down
c,4
}
\new Voice
\relative c'
{
\stemDown
s8 \hideNotes
<g bf e>8~
\unHideNotes
<g bf e>4
}
>>
}
Bass = {
\clef bass
s2*4
}
\score {
\new GrandStaff
<<
\new Staff = treble { \Treble }
\new Staff = bass { \Bass }
>>
}

I am using the command \change Staff = “bass” to move notes to the bass clef, but I am not sure how to keep the cross staff beaming and create ties to the quarter note.
Is there a different way I could create the cross staff beaming, as then I could insert the notes normally in the appropriate clef and add ties?
It's possible to use tieWaitForNote if you make sure the notes are in the right Voice contexts:
\version "2.19.82"
\new PianoStaff <<
\new Staff = "treble" \relative c' {
s1
}
\new Staff = "bass" \relative c {
\clef bass
\set tieWaitForNote = ##t
c8[~ \change Staff = "treble" <b' d g>] \change Staff = "bass"
c,4
}

In your example, this is going to be a bit more involved, since you need ties in both hands simultaneously (to be precise, the beamed eights are going to be in one voice, but the tie-destinations in both hands are going to be in two different voices).
You might have to resort to invisible notes in one of the systems.
