This is a search engine for the Polish archives.

https://searcharchives.pl/

a search for Lemberg gives the following hits

https://searcharchives.pl/search?q=lemberg%20XTYPEro%3Apra&order=

Entries under the polish name Lwow.

mojżeszowe (jewish)    małżeństwa (marriages)
mojżeszowe    urodzenia (births)
mojżeszowe    zgony (deaths)

it doesn´t matter which one you choose, they all refer to the registry office in Warsaw.

Urząd Stanu Cywilnego m. st. Warszawy. III Wydziału Rejestracji Stanu Cywilnego i Ksiąg Zabużańskich

As far as I know, polish registry offices have records guarded by privacy law:

Births: 100 Years
Marriages and deaths: 80 years

After this period they are handed over to the archives.

If i was you, i´d contact the Archive in Warsaw stating what you are looking for (Names, Places, etc), why you think you are elligable to receive this info, and ask their advice as how to continue.
