It is possible.
One solution is to define a hacked ams-article layout,
called e.g. amsart2.layout:
--------------------------------- cut here
#% Do not delete the line below; configure depends on this
# \DeclareLaTeXClass[amsart]{article (AMS*)}
Input amsart
Style Chapter
CopyStyle Section
End
Style Section
CopyStyle Subsection
End
---------------------------------- cut here
place it in ~/.lyx/layouts and select Edit->reconfigure.
