This is NOT allowed by A.net rules. Any image submitted to A.net must be a single exposure on either a single frame of film, or a single exposure on a digital camera. You cannot combine multiple images which make it a composite image.

One way to do what you want is to use layer masks and creating masks for each layer to filter out either the over exposed of under exposed areas. There are loads of ways of doing what you want it all depends on what your separate layers are like.
You can also try the HDR function in PS as this works in similar ways .. but of course both methods are banned at this site.
