I'm not sure exactly what you mean, but you may have to fake the
desired layout by using ties to and from an unvisible note,
respectively:

Before the skip:
g2*1/2 ~ \hideNotes g2*1/2 \unHideNotes

At the beginning of the Coda:
\hideNotes g2*1/2 ~ \unHideNotes g2*1/2

The *1/2 is a trick to get the correct rhythm, the
note is printed using the original duration, 2 in this case,
but internally, LilyPond thinks it only occupies half the duration.

The same trick is useful if you have a tie to the second alternative
ending of a repeat.
