Everything that is possible in LaTeX is also possible in LyX. Therefore,
asking on a LaTeX group would be a better option for you, I guess. The
answer would be - yes, it is possible, but is it easy?

My question was, actually, why should you edit your bib files at all.
Let the reference manager produce them for you. And then let LaTeX do
all the formatting.
I'd change your preamble to:
\usepackage[ngerman]{babel}
\addto\captionsngerman{
\renewcommand{\figurename}{Abb.}
\renewcommand{\tablename}{Tab.}
}
\renewcommand{\thefigure}{\arabic{section}.\arabic{figure}}

have a program (if your OS is multitasking) to make bib database for

Export LaTeX from LyX and compare with the file that works. It is

LaTeX probably calculates the position of your table with respect to

What's obvious from the excerpt you've given is that \@degree is meant
