Sure, see attached. Adjusting the LyX numbering like this is something I've found myself wanting to do a number of times.
Thanks for your time,
Matt

Note that I resolved this for now using the following:
\newcounter{previouschapter}
> \newcounter{previoussection}
> \newcounter{uniquechapteranchor}
> \newcommand{\pushchapter}{%
> \let\previouschaptertitle\parttitle%
>
\setcounter{previouschapter}{\value{part}}%

> \newcommand{\popchapter}{%
> \renewcommand*{\theHpart}{\value{uniquechapteranchor}\the\value{part}}
> % for hyperref
\chapt{\value{previouschapter}} %
> shorthand for \setcounter{part}{n-1}
> \part{\previouschaptertitle~(cont.)}%
> \sect{\value{previoussection}}%
> \stepcounter{section}%
> \stepcounter{uniquechapteranchor}%
> }
and then
> \part{Real part }
\pushchapter
> \part*{Interrupting part}
\popchapter % output a new part, but don't start a new part in LyX
\section{this is in real part}
LyX continues numbering with the previous part even though I write a new
part in the output
