Yes, it is absolutely possible.
My LaTeX installation already has the prosper class file installed
(the "prosper" package from Debian). Here's what I did next.
1. From Dekel's "cluster" tarball, copy three files to ~/.lyx/layouts:
prosper.layout theorem-unnumbered.inc theorem.inc
2. Edit prosper.layout, adding this line:
\RequirePackage{ifthen}
3. Start lyx and do "Edit/Reconfigure". Quit.
These steps are adapted from the "Combining prosper and LyX" section of
http://www.educat.hu-berlin.de/~voss/lyx/seminar/seminar.phtml
The two differences are that: (1) I already had prosper installed so I
didn't need to copy prosper2.cls, and (2) I needed to hack the
prosper.layout file.
As noted on Voss' web page, if you want to load "cluster.lyx", you
also need "dsfont.sty". I obtained the latter from Debian's
"tetex-extra" package.
Hope this helps,
-Steve
