Try this:
1) use oxford_en as your bibliography style (the second option in
the Insert/ToC../Bibliography dialog)
2) add to your preamble this macro:
% % How to make fool of oxford.bst so that it works well even
% % (supposedly) with LyX.
\usepackage[default,none]{oxford}
\let\textcite=\cite
\renewcommand{\cite}[2][]{%
\def \temptxt{#1}%
\ifx \temptxt\empty \footnote{\textcite{#2}}%
\else \footnote{\textcite[#1]{#2}}%
\fi }
\let\oldbibliography\thebibliography
\let\endoldbibliography\endthebibliography
% \newsavebox{\OX@falsebox}
% \renewenvironment{thebibliography}[1]
% {\begin{lrbox}{\OX@falsebox}\begin{oldbibliography}{#1}}
% {\end{oldbibliography}\end{lrbox}}
\newbox\OX@falsebox
\renewenvironment{thebibliography}
{\setbox\OX@falsebox = \vbox \bgroup
\begin{oldbibliography}}
{\end{oldbibliography}\egroup}
% end of dealing with oxford.bst
Then everything should more or less work. If you need both
citation in the footnote and bibliography list in the end of the
document (which is reasonable), then do not use anything below
the line (including) \let\oldbibliography....
Tell us how it works,
