I didn't (yet) create a special command in Denemo to do this, so you
will have to dip your toe in the LilyPond. There are two ways you can
go:
First if you create a 1st time bar marker and right click on it - You
get the "Advanced Edit" dialog - looks very daunting, but the first bit
(labelled postfix) is the LilyPond text for typesetting the first time
bar marker.
It looks like this (with two carriage return characters before and
after):

\set Score.repeatCommands = #'((volta "1"))

If you (carefully!) change the text inside the quotes thus:

\set Score.repeatCommands = #'((volta "1 & 2"))

You get it typesetting 1 & 2 instead of just 1. The Denemo display won't
show this change (you *could* do that too), but it will typeset.

The other route is View->LilyPond and then find that same place (you can
right click to find the cursor position) and edit there.

Now, I noticed something, the figures 1 and 2 are in a different font or
something to the &, which will be something to look up in the LilyPond
documentation, perhaps ask the LilyPond guys about. (The mailing list is
address@hidden).

P.S. if you can include the mailing list address@hidden in your
email then others can gain from what you learn. :)
