        2. How can I enable the normal text completion, say, when I type
        `coun`, then all the possible words with such prefix should be
        triggered to display in a popup window.


    The possible completions are taken from the documents you have
    open. You activate it under Tools> Preferences> Editing> Input
    Completion. There are options there to control how long it takes
    until the popup appears, etc. If you set the inline completion
    delay to, say, 1 sec, then hitting Tab will show the popup.

    This is all in the User Guide, section 2.7.


 But I want to do the completion from a dictionary file on the disk without opening it, is this possible?

No. You can file an enhancement request if you wish. The easiest thing to do for now would be to open that file in LyX.
