I don't see Tree View as an option. So the short answer, AFAICT, is it isn't possible. If you know of a file manager you like that provides the feature, just install and use it.

@guiverc as you point out, Dolphin, even on 18.04, does what you say. The only issue is that it pulls in "baloo"-related packages and I don't know what the effect on that will be in Lubuntu 18.10. Maybe you can ask in IRC?

A file manager that may do what you want and won't pull in too many dependencies is Thunar. Install it by running sudo apt install thunar. After it's installed, you'll find it under Menu > System:
The image shows how to switch to Tree View.
Note that Thunar is a gtk application and nicely obeys the Blackbird theme of light text on a dark background as described here.
