You would need to compile them.

If you're interested, the gnome desktop is available in the corepure64 repo (see gnome-session info file).

BTW, the latest tinycore is 7.0  :)

(Tiny) Core is a project that relies on the community when it comes to "additional" stuff not directly related to the main OS. Meaning "you" have to do what's not already there. You can of course request or ask for extensions, but adopting different desktop environments to Tiny Core could be a project of itself. LXDE might be one of the easier tasks.
Download a copy and keep it handy: Core book ;)

I believe lxde is available in the tc-4.x x86 repo.
