I want a shortcut to quickly apply keep option (start in next column)

to the paragraph in which the cursor is in

Is this possible using a script?

Try this:

var s = app.activeDocument.selection[0];

if (s.hasOwnProperty("paragraphs")) {
    var p = s.paragraphs
    for (var i = 0; i < p.length; i++){
        p[i].startParagraph = StartParagraph.NEXT_COLUMN
    };   
}
