Consider I've 3 template files

archive.php 
archive-books.php 
common.php <-- required_once by both archive.php & archive-books.php 

So whether archive-books.php or archive.php is being loaded depends on the current post type.

Since they both include common.php, in the common.php, how to I know which current WordPress template is picked? i.e. archive.php or archive-books.php ?

In this specific case you could simply follow the logic: determine if you're on an archive page and what the current post type is. Like this:

if (is_archive() && 'books' == get_post_type) { do your thing }

Or you could use the function specific for checking this:

if (is_post_type_archive('books')) { do your thing }

try this to check if your specific post type archive file is present

$postType = get_query_var( 'post_type' );
if(file_exists('archive-'.$postType.'.php')){
    // You have the specific archive file for the post type
}else{
    // You don't have the specific archive file for the post type
}
