Yes, you can, and it can also be very useful for a quick room update. Saving effort and time is a generally smart idea because removing the old tiles requires labour-intensive work. But before deciding to use this procedure for a kitchen or bathroom renovation, there are a few things to think about. 

Pros:
  • The fact that it saves time is one of the key benefits of tiling over existing tiles. This easier option will spare you the hassle of taking out the old tiles, putting in the new ones, and then spending a lot of time cleaning everything up.

  • The price of this remodelling method is another benefit. Because you may avoid renting large, potentially dangerous stripping machines, it is cost-effective.

Cons:
  • Your floor would get more height if you laid new tiles on top of old tiles. This can become a problem if the flooring level starts to obstruct the cabinets or doors. They have probably previously been aligned to the previous flooring.

  • Another issue can be that the step leading to the bathroom entry gets too high and becomes a dangerous accident area.

  • If you're thinking about doing it yourself, your existing tiles should be in reasonably excellent shape, be regularly spaced, and not have any moisture-retaining fissures. The space won't be made better by tiling over severely damaged or uneven tiles; instead, more problems and necessary repairs will result.

I believe now you will make an informed decision.
