I don't think so, events get passed to all layers. Just be sure the event has not been consumed
by previous layer

  public boolean mouseMoved(MouseEvent e) {
    int x = e.getX();
    int y = e.getY();
    LatLonPoint ll = projection.inverse(x, y);
    return true; // to consume the event or false otherwise
  }

So, you can collect information under mouse from all layers. It works well.
