Sure.

I have inserted an empty ERT into a quote environment (this is the red
rectangle). Its purpose is only to keep the environment (if the quote
paragraph was empty, LyX would just delete it). A note inset would probably
do as well. This generates
\begin{quote}
In the next part, I inserted the enumeration, and I nested it into the quote
environment (Edit>Increase List Depth). The purpose was to have the
enumeration environment nested into the "empty" quote environment. I.e.,
\begin{quote}
\begin{enumeration}
\item foo
\item bar
\end{enumerate}
\end{quote}

This is the optional argument of the enumeration item, in LaTeX
\item[``1.] foo
In the optional argument, you can set an alternative enumeration label, so
the label is ``1. instead of just 1.
The setcounter part is needed, because the counter needs to be increased
(otherwise, the second item would start with 1.
