The way I do this type of thing is to construct the frontmatter, including the cover, in LyX using ERT and custom environments. That's a few hours of LaTeX ERT work to get it looking just how you want it to, but I think it's worth it.
A second way you can do it is to use pdftk to tack the Word-sourced front pages onto the LyX sourced rest of the document, and of course set page numbering in both so everything matches up.
