I don't think its been done as a command, but if you double-click on
the note and choose Object Editor and then Advanced on the phrasing
slur directive you can insert the "^" you want into the LilyPond
postfix field. You might like to add something to the "Display text"
field so that you can see in the Display that you have altered this
phrasing slur.

For something more user-friendly once you have the Advanced edit up you
can click "Create Script" which will put a script for creating that
syntax into the View->Scheme window. You can then create a palette
button to activate that script whenever you want (right-click on a
palette button and Edit Palette, Duplicate a button, right click on the
duplicate and "Get Script" into the button) or create a menu command
for it (right click on the Phrasing Slur command and "Save as new menu
item".
