Yes, absolutely.  But there are quite a few ways to make that easy.

lxc templates is one, but working up a really nice set of those
might not be as good a use of time as doing something that
be useful not just with lxc, but with any virtualization system, or
with real machines.

In other words: it should be an easy two-step process to get an LXC lamp
server: lxc-create the base image, then do something like 'apt-get
install lamp-server'
inside that.
