Try using the File>Import>Stack from List command. Here is the description of this command from the ImageJ User Guide:

Opens a stack, or virtual stack, from a text file or URL containing a list of image file paths]. The images can be in different folders but they must all be the same size and type. The Virtual Stack From List macro [1] demonstrates how to generate a list of images and then use that list to open the images as a virtual stack. The OpenStackUsingURLs macro [2] demonstrates how to how to open an image series from a remote server.
