I do not know how to strictly disable all hyphenation (surely a solution
can be found in good LaTeX books), but inserting the command "\sloppy"
in the latex preamble (Pulldown: Layout -> LaTex Preamble) will get you
rid of virtually all hyphenations. The cost is a somewhat less
restrictive typesetting (more variable space between single words), but
it's usually hard to notice by eye.
I assume that putting "\sloppy" in red (TeX style) in front of a
paragraph will have the same effort for the following text. You can
switch back to fuzzy typesetting by specifying "\fuzzy" at any place.
Hope this helps.
Happy LyXing, Dirk
