You can. For example, if you defined a new command \mycommand that looks
like two colons very close togther, you could write
\def\mycommand{:\kern-1mu :}
in lib symbols to make it display in mathed. What you can not do is add a
new font, because that needs support from within LyX.

Can you give an example for what you have in mind?
