Yes, for some background information have a look at
http://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/FiguresInLyX
Further I have created a screencast (413kb) about how to insert
figures within LyX. You can watch it at:
https://dboehm.homeip.net/lyx/screencast.htm
If someone likes, he or she can upload it into the wiki - I don't know
where to put it and how to upload it...
