how can I have the bf and the a in the second measure shared across the staves??

You need the \change Staff command https://lilypond.org/doc/v2.24/Documentation/notation/common-notation-for-keyboards#changing-staff-manually

\version "2.24.0"

\new PianoStaff <<
  \time 3/4
  \new Staff="upper" {
    \clef "treble"
    \new Voice {
      \voiceOne d'8 c' bes4 a4
    }
  }
  \new Staff="lower" <<
    \clef "bass"
    \new Voice \scaleDurations 2/3 {
      \voiceOne
      r8 c g
      \change Staff="upper" \once\stemDown bes8 \change Staff="lower" d g
      \change Staff="upper" \once\stemDown a8 \change Staff="lower" d fis
    }
    \new Voice {
      \voiceTwo
      e,4 d,2
    }
