Since the Switch Lite is compatible with LAN Adapters is there a way to connect the switch to my PC via USB and let it use the internet connection there?

Something like a Virtual LAN Adapter?

it is called 'usb tethering',
and nope since you would have to write exclusive s/w for the pc and also for the switch, and to my knowledge no one have done so

yeah but u could also call reverse tethering as tethering if u loosely define it.
anyways there is none since there are no needs for such software when they can just connect via wifi or usb lan adapter

i only need it for today to download a fairly large amount of data in short time.
thought i could speed it up by using some wired solution.

My phones USB tethering didnt work, sadly.

Just get a gigabit ethernet switch so you can split the single ethernet cable port into like 4-5 ports, that way you can hard wired the switch to your network.
