It can be done, not necessarily the best and or easiest way though.
For the poster I use a0poster from here
http://andreas.welcomes-you.com/projects/a0poster/
which I think may be newer than this
http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/~marchini/a0poster.html

Looks like there is some kind of layout file here
http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-users@lists.lyx.org/msg63740.html
don't know how good it is or if it still alive.

I find it best to combine multicols and for boxes either minipage and for a
fancier look pdfpages with beamer

For more complicated stuff I use scribus
