Yes. It's in a wierd place. First load the photos into the Photo Bin in Elements. Then menu Enhance>Photomerge Exposure, and select the photos in the bin.

Re: Is it possible to merge to HDR in elementes11
As an alternative method for HDR merging; which is what I usually do, although requiring a little more skill.
Does Elements 11 have an Auto Align option. I think there is something similar but not sure.
In which case, align the images as layers then place a mask over each layer. Carefully edit each mask to show exactly what you require.
Sometimes known as Hand-made HDR. As I said, this is a bit more tricky than the Auto HDR option but it means you are totally in control of exactly what goes into your final merge.
Initially, not for the faint hearted though.
