Can that stack produce well-structured, accessible HTML? Or are you suggesting that he still use HTML or Markdown as his source format, then use LyX only for the print version?

Oh absolutely. Stick with Markdown and export to HTML as needed (I use emacs and org-mode's built in converter for that) but pandoc can export from Markdown to LaTeX and then Lyx can import it no problem.
