Taylor series for $e^{a x} J_0 (b x)$
The $n$-th derivative of the product is \begin{equation} \frac{d^n}{dx^n}f\left( a,b,x \right)=\sum_{k=0}^n\binom{n}{k}a^{n-k}b^ke^{ax}\left.\frac{d^k}{dz^k}J_0(z)\right|_{z=bx} \end{equation} We want to evaluate it at $x=0$, then \begin{equation} C_n(a,b)=\left.\frac{d^n}{dx^n}f\left( a,b,x \right)\right|_{x=0}=\sum_{k=0}^n\binom{n}{k}a^{n-k}b^k\left.\frac{d^k}{dz^k}J_0(z)\right|_{z=0} \end{equation} Using the formula for the $k$-th derivative of the Bessel function (DLMF), \begin{equation} \left.\frac{d^k}{dz^k}J_0(z)\right|_{z=0}=\frac{1}{2^{k}}\sum_{p=0}^{k}(-1)^{p}\binom{k}{p}% J_{2p-k}\left(0\right) \end{equation} In this sum, the only non-vanishing Bessel functions at the origin have a zero index, i.e. $p=k/2$. Then, for integer $s$, \begin{equation} \left.\frac{d^k}{dz^k}J_0(z)\right|_{z=0}=\begin{cases} (-1)^s2^{-2s}\binom{2s}{s} & \text{for } k=2s \\ 0 & \text{for } k=2s+1 \end{cases} \end{equation} thus \begin{equation} C_n(a,b)=\sum_{s=0}^{\lfloor n/2 \rfloor}(-1)^s2^{-2s}\binom{n}{2s}\binom{2s}{s}a^{n-2s}b^{2s} \end{equation} finally, using the explicit expression of the Legendre polynomials, we obtain \begin{equation} C_n(a,b)=\operatorname{sign}(a)\left( a^2 +b^2\right)^{n/2}P_n\left( \frac{\left|a\right|}{\sqrt{a^2+b^2}} \right) \end{equation} Taking into account the parity properties of the polynomials, this expression can be written as: \begin{equation} C_n(a,b)=\left( a^2 +b^2\right)^{n/2}P_n\left( \frac{a}{\sqrt{a^2+b^2}} \right) \end{equation}
This result can be checked using the exponential generating function of the Legendre polynomials \begin{equation} \sum_{n=0}^\infty P_n(z)\frac{t^n}{n!}=e^{tz}{}_0F_1\left( ;1;\frac{t^2\left( z^2-1\right)}{4} \right) \end{equation} when $-1<x<1$. Using the hypergeometric representation of the Bessel function \begin{equation} J_0(u)={}_0F_1\left( ;1;\frac{-u^2}{4} \right) \end{equation} By choosing $t^2\left( z^2-1 \right)=-b^2x^2$ and $tz=ax$, we obtain \begin{equation} z=\frac{\pm1}{\sqrt{1+\frac{b^2}{a^2}}}\quad t=\pm ax \sqrt{1+\frac{b^2}{a^2}} \end{equation} then the generating function is identical to the Taylor expansion.
With Laplace transform $${\cal L}\left(e^{ax}J_0(bx)\right)=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt{b^2+(s-a)^2}}=\dfrac{1}{s{\sqrt{1-2\frac{a}{\sqrt{a^2+b^2}}\frac{\sqrt{a^2+b^2}}{s}+\left(\frac{\sqrt{a^2+b^2}}{s}\right)^2}}}$$ valid for $s>\sqrt{a^2+b^2}$. With generating function of Legendre polynomials $$e^{ax}J_0(bx)={\cal L}^{-1}\sum_{n=0}^\infty\dfrac{\sqrt{a^2+b^2}^n}{s^{n+1}}P\left(\frac{a}{\sqrt{a^2+b^2}}\right) = \sum_{n=0}^\infty\dfrac{\sqrt{a^2+b^2}^n}{n!}P\left(\frac{a}{\sqrt{a^2+b^2}}\right)x^n$$
