I don't know of any. Did you have a look in the Help>Lfuns (or what it is called in English or Greek) manual? OTOH, if you know tie the system-keybord-layout and the text language in LyX¹ it should be fairly easy: "language greek" when the keybord layout is set to Greek, "language english" (or whatever you use as secondary language), else. It may become a problem if you use several non-Greek languages or language variants. Günter ¹ not only used for spellchecking, but also for hyphenation and auto-generated strings.
