I have texlive-2007 deb/ubuntu packages (executables in /usr/bin) and the texlive-2009 in /usr/local directory (executables in ... see below) By default LyX use 2009 because in my .bashrc file I added the line PATH=/usr/local/texlive/2009/bin/x86_64-linux:$PATH; export PATH Then the active latex is 2009. If I want to test anything using texlive-2007 (hardly ever), I comment (#) the above line and then the active latex is the one from the default PATH, i.e. /usr/bin, i.e. texlive-2007. You can test the running latex with 'tex --version' command
