      Lucid dreaming is a physiological and mental state which is demonstrably different from both REM, NREM and waking states. So although the lucid dreaming state is most likely to be triggered by a period of REM sleep, there is still a possibility that it can arise from NREM sleep - just like how lucid dreaming can be 'triggered' directly from waking in a WILD.

      That basically answers my question!
