No. The Titanic was far too massive to be lifted even by the most violent tornado.
The dirt and debris picked up by a tornado are often referred to as the tornado's "debris field" or "debris cloud." This material can include soil, vegetation, pieces of buildings, and other objects that are lifted and carried by the tornado's strong winds.
It is difficult to determine, but the heaviest objects lifted by a tornado appear to be a set of three oil tanks, each weighing 90 tons. The tornado struck Pecos County, Texas on June 1, 1990. The tornado was officially rated F4 as it hit few structures, but of ground scouring and the carried oil tanks suggests that the tornado's intensity was well into the F5 range.
It depends on the intensity of tor tornado. The heaviest objects known to have been lifted by a tornado was a 90 ton oil tank. The intensity of the tornado that did this was likely well into the F5 range.
No. It doesn't take a very strong tornado to pick up or flip a car. If you are in a car and a tornado is coming you should go to the nearest sturdy building or underground shelter. If no shelter is nearby get out of the car and lie in a ditch or depression.
When warm air is lifted up over cold air, it is called "overrunning" or "warm air advection." This process leads to the warm air rising, cooling, and condensing to form clouds and precipitation as it interacts with the cold air at the surface.
The bow had been completely filled with water when Titanic sank. The stern, being lifted up, had none.

Most likely yes. EF2 tornadoes have lifted larger objects than that.
It is highly unlikely for a tornado to pick up an airplane due to its heavy weight and design. Airplanes are built to withstand strong winds and turbulence, and they are not easily lifted off the ground by tornadoes.

Possibly. EF4 tornadoes have been known to lift poorly anchored buildings and heavy construction equipment. More would have to be known about the ship's specifications. It could be lifted it probably would not go very far.
Yes you could. You could inhale the debris that the tornado picked up. You would have to be relatively close, though.
No. Though a very strong tornado might cause it to collapse.
While tornadoes frequently destroy houses it is fairly rare for whole houses to be lifted. In some cases a violent tornado might pick up one or two at a time and perhaps a few dozen in all along its path.
Objects like trees, vehicles, and even animals can be picked up in a tornado due to the strong winds and swirling motion of the storm. In addition to physical objects, debris like rocks, branches, and building materials can also be lifted and carried by tornadoes.
