Your question sounds like a good trip report in the making!

Now that I visited Lucca, I know a few stores to buy Luccan olive oil. One I ended up buying bottles was La Grotta at north end of the outside facing wall of Anfiteatro. There was another one with access from the inside of the Anfiteatro, but I liked the selections at La Grotta better. Also on Via Roma near Piazza Bernardini, I saw a store selling olive oil, but the store was closed due to "pausa." It looked more upscale than the ones on via Filungo. I found these three just by wondering around.
