You CAN place tile over tile, but saying you can put tile over tile is like saying you CAN jump off of a bridge. It's just simply not a good idea. It can cause air pockets to be created under the tile laid on top, which can lead to cracked tiles if anything is dropped on them or sometimes simply by walking on them. It's worth the time to go ahead and strip the tile off of the floor before laying any new tile.
