No, you'll find them in the directory from which you ran configure.
This means that
- if you want to change system-wide defaults, do (as root)
cd ${PREFIX}/share/lyx/ ; ./configure
- if you want to change user-local defaults, do
cd ${HOME}/.lyx ; ${PREFIX}/share/lyx/configure
(where PREFIX is not a real variable, but rather something like
/usr/local).
