Ah, sorry, I misread completely. You could do

\version "2.22.2"

\layout {
   \context {
     \ChoirStaff
     \consists Span_bar_engraver
     \override BarLine.allow-span-bar = ##f
   }
}

spanBarHere = \once \override ChoirStaff.BarLine.allow-span-bar = ##t


\new ChoirStaff <<
   \new Staff { 1 1 \spanBarHere \bar "||" 1 }
   \new Staff { 1 1 1 }
 >>
