Adobe added TIFF layers in Photoshop 7, by simply including almost all of
its PSD file format as a custom field within the TIFF file. libtiff doesn't
support this field - and I doubt it will.
So the answer to your question is yes, it is possible to save layered TIFFs
using libtiff, but only by creating the PSD layer data yourself and adding
it as a custom field to a TIFF which contains the composite (flattened)
image.
