It would not be easy, given that uses either Qt or Xforms for its widget set, and depends on loads of extra libraries that haven't been ported to Maemo yet. "portage -pv lyx", on a fully set up Gentoo/Gnome box with tetex and a barebones Qt3 already installed, still wanted to pull in another 100MB of sources to build Lyx. And Maemo is much more sparse - there would probably be in excess of half a gigabyte of sourcecode to gtkize, hildonize and besides that to patch into peaceful cooperation with a low-memory-footprint non-x86 system...
