Closet flanges should always have the bottom of the flange resting on top of the finished floor. So to answer this specific question, the tile should be under the flange and the flange should be secured to the subfloor.

Can you increase height of toilet flange?
Extend the Wax Ring instead. The Fluidmaster No.35B Wax Extender Kit is specifically designed for problem areas where the floor flange is 1/4" to 1" below the surface as in tile work. The cost is under $6. Some plumbing supply stores sell an extension that bolts to your existing flange. If you need an extension due to new tile work, this will do the trick. If the flange is only one quarter inch or less below floor level, you can just use two wax rings.
How do you raise the level of the toilet after tile install?
Depends on how much you need. Sometimes you can just use two wax rings. If that doesn't do it, you can use a PVC toilet flange and use it to make up the difference. Cut it off the right height and use a wax ring between it and the old flange. You cut the old flange out and extend the pipe and a new flange. If you put backer board down first and then the tile, you probably raised the floor level about 3/4 of an inch. Two wax rings with the black funnel insert in them should be enough to seal the toilet to the drain.
What kind of sub floor should you use for tile?
