Yes and no. If the old linleum is peeling and seems loose then I would pull it up. If however the old linoleum is still in good shape and isn't peeling then yes, but steps must be taken. if it's on a cement floor then you need to coat the floor with a bonding agent or use a higher performing modified thinset. If the linoleum is on a wood subfloor I'd just staple metal lath right over the linoleum and tile it. I would use a bonding agent that most specialized tile stores sell. since there are so many just go to a tile store near you and ask them what they have.
