Lat/Lon Question

I am working with a Lambert Conformal projected dataset with GeoX and GeoY
x and y coordinates (excerpt below). There are no latitude or longitude
coordinates.
Can anyone tell me if it is possible to compute lat/lon from the x,y, and
projection information and if so, how?

Thanks,

Greg
