Absolutely. I do this all the time. What you need is proTeXt¹ for the LaTeX installation (1.3 GB), and a standalone LyX installer without MikTeX (35 MB).² So, you do need a fast (or patient) connection for the initial download. The ProTeXt distribution of MiKTeX (TeX for Windows) contains almost every package that you may ever need. This is the only distribution of TeX that can be called an "offline", "standalone" or "full" TeX installer, IMHO. ¹ http://www.tug.org/protext/ ² http://www.lyx.org/Download -- GPG/PGP ID: C0711BF1
