Yes, this is what I meant, and the sequence you listed is what I would use.
I don't know if it will work in 100% of all cases, but at worst you should
have the .lyx and .tex files saved (and a LaTeX log file indicating why
compilation failed), or maybe a PDF file with those annoying question marks
where you were hoping for cross-references.
