Currently I have to manually go to the Edit->Paragraph Settings menu and set double spacing for each individual paragraph in the document. I'm using the article ( hebrew ) doc class as a base for trying to write proofs in Hebrew.

If you have a full TeXLive distribution, xelatex should be installed already, and you should be able to choose Document→Settings...→Fonts→Use non-TeX fonts (via XeTeX/LuaTeX) in LyX to have your document compile with xelatex. If that doesn't work, you need to tell us more about how your TeX distribution was installed.
apa6 does not a provide a float-specific spacing as a document class option (see section 3.1 Class Options of the apa6 documentation, p 2). However, it loads the etoolbox package by default which provides \AtBeginEnvironment{<env>}{<stuff>} that hooks into and adds <stuff> at \begin{<env>}. So, you can use
\usepackage{setspace}% http://ctan.org/pkg/setspace
\AtBeginEnvironment{tabular}{\singlespacing}% Single spacing in tabular environment
Although it is not necessary to load use the setspace interface for \singlespacing in this case, it is just for convenience. If you're not allowed to use setspace, you could also just use
\makeatletter
\AtBeginEnvironment{tabular}{%
\def\baselinestretch{1}\@currsize}%
\makeatother
Here is a minimal example using the former setspace adjustment:
\documentclass[man,floatsintext]{apa6}% http://ctan.org/pkg/apa6
\shorttitle{Some title}% Dummy title
\usepackage{lipsum}% http://ctan.org/pkg/lipsum
\usepackage{setspace}% http://ctan.org/pkg/setspace
% Already loaded by the apa6 documentclass...
% \usepackage{etoolbox}% http://ctan.org/pkg/etoolbox
\AtBeginEnvironment{tabular}{\singlespacing}% Single spacing in tabular environment
\begin{document}
\lipsum[1]
\begin{table}[ht]
\begin{tabular}{ccccccc}
\toprule
One & Two & Three & Four & Five & Six & Seven \\
\midrule
100 & 200 & 300 & 400 & 500 & 600 & 700 \\
100 & 200 & 300 & 400 & 500 & 600 & 700 \\
100 & 200 & 300 & 400 & 500 & 600 & 700 \\
100 & 200 & 300 & 400 & 500 & 600 & 700 \\
100 & 200 & 300 & 400 & 500 & 600 & 700 \\
\bottomrule
\end{tabular}
\caption{This is a table.}
\end{table}
\end{document}
lipsum was merely used to create dummy text Lorem Ipsum style.
