I searched carefully but could not find such a shortcut. Is there a keyboard shortcut for "pause" and "resume" on the LabVIEW window?

If its for debugging purpose, use Breakpoints..

It is not for debugging purposes.

I run a VI by pressing the "Run" button (or Ctrl-R). After some time (nevermind why) I need to pause the VI. I typically do that by pressing the "Pause" button. Since I'm running this remotely from another computer, I would like to be able to press this button using a keyboard shortcut. Afterwards, I press the "Pause" button again to resume the VI.

Hi Finkler,
so you are using a debugging feature! And no, there seems to be no shortcut key assigned.
When you need a VI with the ability to "pause" you should learn about state machines. They are a common scheme to incorporate such "states" as "running" or "paused" in a VI (or program in general)...
