Hmm! That does not seem to be the case on my linux lyx 1.3.4 where the procedure I follow relatively routinely is as follows:
1. Go to the first text document and highlight the text to be copied by highlighting and ctrl C.
2. Click outside the highlighted text to get rid of the highlight. This for some reason is fairly important.
3,.Go to the other lyx document, opened by a separate lyx command.
4. Push the middle mouse button where you want to place the copied text.
I have just done this again to ensure that it does work.Maybe it does not work on all configurations.

Surprisingly, this also works with Lyx 1.3.5 under Windows (XP). Normally, the middle mouse button does nothing in Windows. The windows version of Lyx seems to be the only application where it follows the usual linux behavior (pasting the copy buffer), both within a single window and between different windows.
