I don't see where they store the timestamps for nodes within the API, but
looking at what the HyperShade is doing, it is running an lsThroughFilter()
command. You could use this same approach, using the current selection:
# first select some nodes
# then create a pass through filter that basically does nothing
objFilter = cmds.createNode("objectFilter")
sorted_nodes = cmds.lsThroughFilter(objFilter, na=True, sort="byTime", sl=True)
