You could do something like this, which looks at the direction of the
first stem in the tuplet to determine where the note head is:
\relative c'' {
\override TupletBracket #'direction =
#(lambda (grob)
(let* ((note-column (ly:grob-parent grob X))
(stem (ly:grob-object note-column 'stem))
(stem-direction (ly:grob-property stem 'direction)))
(if (= UP stem-direction)
DOWN
UP)))
\times 2/3 { c8 c c }
\times 2/3 { c,8 c c }
\times 2/3 { c'8 c c }
\times 2/3 { c,8 c c }
}
This doesn't address the issue of the stem direction changing during
the course of the tuplet (i.e., for a "kneed beam").

Yes--the tuplet number is pulled along by the bracket, even though
there is none visible here.
