Open Word and insert a table (1 x 1 will work just fine).
Right-click in the table and, in the context menu, select "Bullets" and a bullet image from the bullet library.
Type something and press enter.
Type something else, but, instead of clicking enter, right-click and select "Increase Indent"
Notice something else moves into the proper indentation of a nested bullet:
Outside of a Word table, you would simply press tab to get this behavior, but I want a keyboard shortcut (if available) to do this inside the table.
This is what I've tried:
- Ctrl + Tab: Just indents the text, not the bullet
- Ctrl + T: Same as Ctrl + Tab
- Ctrl + M: Indents the text and the bullet but does not change the
bullet style
Can this be done outside the right-click context menu?

In at least Word 2010, you can increase/decrease the indent in a bulleted or numbered list using the following keyboard shortcuts:
Windows:Shift+Alt+→/←
Mac: Shift+Ctrl+→/←
