Only in a formula. Even then, you may consider \text instead of \mathrm to
get the normal text font and eventually smaller size (in nested fractions,
e.g.).
In text, you can use the Unicode character 0x2103 which translates to the
macro \\textcelsius.
In both, text and math you can use ° (0x00b0) which LyX translates to
"\\textdegree" or "^\circ.

In math mode, pressing the space-bar repeatedly toggles between the various
spaces. Do this until you get the \,-space.
In text, I have the custom shortcut Ctrl-, (the default was said to be
Ctrl-Shift <space> in another reply).

I don't know, but possible in a text-editor search-and-replace over the LyX
source file.
