YUI has selector utility since version 2 (http://developer.yahoo.com/yui/selector/), but it doesn't get popular in YUI 2 since most of module codes are written before selector is introduced into YUI2.

YUI 3 (currently in preview release) has explicitly JQuery-like selectors:
Y.all('.foo').set('title', 'Go!').removeClass('off');
Take a look at:
I've gotten good results using YUI 3 Preview Release 1 on OffsetConsumer.org, a website I'm working on; the next YUI 3 preview release is scheduled to come out in November.

Check the YUI Selector Utility, it gives you CSS3 selector sintax, it still in beta but works quite well, check this example: YAHOO.util.Selector.query
