No, it appears that the executable name is hard-coded in the LyX
sources as "bibtex".
Do yo uget any useful info if you run this from the command line?
$ lyx -dbg latex -e dvi your_file.tex

I seem to remember that Ruurd's web site says "yes".
You'll need a functioning shell environment (mingw?)
For the rest, you'll need latex, dvips, gs and pnmcrop. See
${PREFIX}/share/lyx/scripts/lyxpreview2bitmap.sh
You'll also need the preview-latex package installed somewhere that
latex can find it.
