Exporting to Latex is trivial, as Liviu said. What may be far less
trivial---depending on the complexity of your document---is making sure you
use Springer's own class and do things "The Springer way" (I speak from
recent experience). I would start by downloading Springer's instructions
and related TeX files (Class, etc) and reading the instructions. The list
archive will help you greatly. Notice also that there is a LyX layout for
Springer's journal class (sv3jour, I believe it's called).

Cheers,

S.
