may be of some use here

#(define (mark-one-ignatzek-chord-names in-pitches bass inversion  context)
         (markup #:line ("1. " (ignatzek-chord-names in-pitches bass 
inversion context))))

#(define (mark-two-ignatzek-chord-names in-pitches bass inversion  context)
         (markup #:line ("2. " (ignatzek-chord-names in-pitches bass 
inversion context))))

NumOne = { \set chordNameFunction = #mark-one-ignatzek-chord-names }
NumTwo = { \set chordNameFunction = #mark-two-ignatzek-chord-names }
NoNum = { \unset chordNameFunction }

and then

\NumOne c:7 \NoNum

or

\NumTwo a:7 \noNum

(This is untested, I copied the definitions from a local file and 
changed the definitions).

HTH,
