Hi Carla, I would cover the old tile with a floor leveling compound first to provide a flat surface, then you can re-tile over that.
No, there will be gaps from grout lines and tiles will break. Much better to remove the old and put in new.
You can but tile needs to be laid on cement board or floor leveler added. The additional weight of another layer of subflooring & tile might be too much so I would advice against it.
Tile can be installed directly over a concrete slab orover a wood subfloor with an added layer of backer board. Tile can even be installed over an existing tile floor. ... When laying tile over tile, it is best to use a modified thin-set. This is a bonding mortar with either a latex or polymer additive.
