I know there's a short cut to export an image from Lr to Ps (Ctrl + E) but is there a short cut to export multiple images from Lr to Ps in layers?

There is no built-in keyboard shortcut for that and unfortunately Lightroom doesn't have a keyboard shortcut editor.
There are ways to assign your own keyboard shortcuts like explained here:

Thanks I'll have to check into this, much appreciated. Surprised Adobe doesn't provide one since Lr & Ps go hand in hand.

Maybe you can use the opposite route:

My goal is always to shave off time where ever possible in post. I do real estate photography and go between Lr & Ps on just about every other image. Thought if I could hit 2 keys I could eliminate right click on selected images & scrolling down to Layer in Ps. Maybe I can achieve this by creating my own short cut by what Jeff mentioned above. Thanks for your response but I don't see how it could be helpful in my scenario.

What is the problem with:
open selected files from LR in PS
run in PS: File > Scripts > Load Files into Stack… (all opened files)

I'm not saying there is a problem, I like my workflow the way I have it set up just wondering if there was a short cut using the Keyboard Keys to open selected files(1-2 or 3-4) in layers. I prefer to develop an image at a time & be done with it, Lr to Ps to Lr for touch up then export when all images are completed. I just don't see a benefit developing all the images first, grouping together to load into Ps to do repairs &/or layering then back to Lr, then go through them again to touch up as necessary. I just see it as adding to my workflow going through them all again, like I said I prefer to develop an image & be done with it before moving onto the next. That's just me.
