You can double click a symbol that you've placed in the document.


To close it, you can double click outside the symbol or press esc key
It works just about the same as double clicking a group or a mask.

From my experience you cannot create a shortcut for the edit symbol. You can view the symbols in the Symbols Panel by going to Window > Symbol and double clicking on any symbol there to edit:





You could always review the Adobe's documentation for scripting and see if you could develop a workaround.
