I think you were trying to say: "You can't speak English at all, even though you had lived in the USA."

you can also say "even though/although having lived in the USA."

But in the end even the thing you said could be understood.

"You have lived in the USA, yet you can't speak English at all." More of a written style, I think the others are better for conversation.

You can't speak English at all, yet you have lived in the USA.

I want to ask. Is above one also OK?

I don't think that would be working. But there might be some locations where this construction could work. Let the natives get a hang of it.

It sounds ok to me if you don't use "have":
"You can't speak English at all, yet you lived in the USA."

But it's still a little uncommon to say "yet"

住んだことがある　というのは have livedで表現すると思いますがなかなかむずかしいですねｗ

そうですね。"even though you have lived in the USA." も大丈夫ですが、"even though you've lived in the USA"はもっと自然だと思います！
