Yes:

InsetLayout Flex:Table_Options
        LyXType                 custom
        Decoration              classic
        LabelString             "Table Options"
        MenuString              "Table Options|O"
        PassThru                1
        LatexType               command
        LatexName               SetKeys[cas/tbl]
        LabelFont
          Family                Roman
          Color                 red
        EndFont
        ResetsFont              0
        MultiPar                0
End

With this you can specify the options (outside the float) via
\SetKeys[cas/tbl]{<options>} (which is what the class internally does
as well, only with global effect)

I have (after a while, sorry for that) had a closer look at the layout
and only did a couple of polishments and minor fixes. See attachments.

I can include this in LyX (master) if you provide us with a license
agreement message to this list similar to this one:
