Well, it is not as easy as just going to a menu and set LyX to ABNT --- at least not the first time. You need to write a LyX ABNT.layout file that matches the ABNT.cls and "explains" it to LyX. The "Extended" guide (available from the LyX help menu and hence easily reachable) will tell you how to do this. Also, there are already a lot of *.layout files in the (surprise) $LYXDIR$/layout/ directory, that could serve as example. Once your started writing LyX layouts you will find it fairly easy (at least with some general programming skill). If you manage (or find someone who does), don't forget to contribute the result to the lyx developers -- then it could be made available on the "contributions" section of the Lyx ftp-server.
