While DynaMat is normally used as a sound deadening device, it also has large basis in use as a heat-reflective material... lining the bottom of the car with it will help to keep cabin temps down.
That said, it's obviously covered with foil, which is heat-reflective, and might help to keep the heat from being absorbed by the hood and released into the atmosphere.

I think it's worth testing
But - I'm not concerned of convection off a warm hood.... It the heated air in the engine bay - if it's not heating the hood, it's going to try and go elsewhere unless something stops it from physically moving out of seams, cracks etc.
