That is more of a Kubernetes infrastructure question and not directly Elasticsearch related, so i will let someone else chime in.

Elasticsearch gives you high-availability itself (if [properly configured](https://www.elastic.co/guide/en/elasticsearch/reference/current/high-availability.html)), there's no need to do anything special at the storage layer. Sharing volumes across nodes is complex, unnecessary and often a source of problems so I would recommend not doing that.
