Yes. A tornado is not a solid object; it is mostly air. However, the violent winds would likely throw the missile off course.
Some researchers have attempted to fire instruments into tornadoes on missiles, but failed as the light missiles were tossed aside by the wind. It was suggested that a heavier missile would have better luck, but the researchers on the project could not get approval to use one.
Other than for research there would be little use in firing a missile into a tornado, as any explosive strong enough to possibly disrupt a tornado would only cause more damage.

In such a worst case scenario thousands houses and buildings along the tornado's path will be destroyed, some completely obliterated.
