Like I said that's up to you. Whichever way you feel more comfortable with. It's better to roll your fingers as you said for this particular part, just so you don't have to worry about muting the b string once you play the e string. By having both strings pressed down you run the chance of having the b-string continue to ring out while playing the e-string. I know that is not the case with this part. Sometimes this is what you want, sometimes not. But you do want to have you finger in place before you actually play the g-string, just because of the speed of the part. Hopefully you understand what I'm trying to say, it's kinda hard to explain without showing you visually. Go with what you feel comfortable with, but make sure the b-string doesn't ring out.

Not just for that part, but when you play anything like that. Whether it's an arpeggio or just a melodic lick. Your fingers should always be in the best position for that part.
