Don't know how clever it is, but here's one way that will work:

Copy the measure into another layer. Adjust stems, etc., so that the two layers are identical. Then in one of the layers apply the tuplet tool to the first 16th to define it as one 16th displaying in the space of two 16ths (with no number or bracket). Then in that same layer delete the rest.

That should be good to go. If the original 16ths are still showing through funny, make them invisible. If you're worried about playback, make sure that the kludged layer is set to no-play, and the regular layer is set to play even when invisible.
