Yes! But you need to make sure you have proper support underneath i.e floor joists. Make sure they are sturdy and supportive, if they start moving, your tile will be ruined. Try to use 3/4" pressboard on the joists screwed every 8"...stagger the boards so there is no continuous running joints. On top of that use 1/2" cement board like durock. You must use thin set between the two boards and screw them together. Also, use thin set , as you would spackle, in the joints of durock with mesh material as reinforcement. Make sure to use the green screws specifically made for cement board. Wait 24 hrs and start tiling...goodluck

It may even not be wood at all, but instead metal. One would have to see the cabinet in question to determine for sure."

Due to the granular structure of pressboard, the closest you could come to making it look like wood would be to apply a veneer. It's not pretty, bit it looks a lot better than trying to dress up a surface that will not ever look like real wood.
