That would depend on whether they are ceramic tiles or more vinyl tiles.
Only if the vinyl was previously installed over concrete, and has a positive bond. Scar the finish of the vinyl with a hand sander (course paper), and use a high strength thinset for the installation.

Normally, installing new vinyl directly over old vinyl is not recommended because most manufacturers will not honor the warranty. Any bumps or dips in the surface can translate through your new vinyl. Dye or stains from the old vinyl can also seep into the new vinyl. But you can remedy this by applying an embossing leveler over the old vinyl, and then sealing it with an acrylic sealer. Then trowel your glue onto the sealed surface, and install your new vinyl. Most recommended practice, however, is to remove the old vinyl OR install new wood underlayment on top of the old vinyl. Then spread your glue and install new vinyl. As always, check the installation instructions for your new vinyl.
I am trying to glue a piece of vinyl wallboard paper over an existing vinyl wallboard to cover a damaged spot. Is there a specific kind of glue to use? I have tried 4 different glues and nothing is working. Do you have any tips for successfully completing this project? djsmthsn@telus.net

You scrape away the original glue and re-glue it with a vinyl glue, then stick it o the wall. Don't let water run or spray over it for at least 2 days, then grout it.
Yes. The vinyl has to be specially cleaned and treated in order for the adhesive to stick. Special products and instructions are available at most home improvement stores.
