Plain concrete will not hold up. You need to use a latex modified cement or latex modified floor leveling compound.

Are you looking to put a concrete counter over tile. If so I would remove the tile as it can crack from the weight on the concrete.
I agree with the first comment, plain concrete will almost certain end up breaking at some point. A latex based pour though (like a floor leveling compound) will probably work just fine and hold up over time.
Not without some prep work first! Are you doing concrete over tiles on a floor or a counter top?

Oh yes....remove tile first!!! You will have a mess and more work on your hands if you try to do it over the existing tile.
Unfortunately, you really should remove the tile first!
If you are talking flooring, No. Wall tile yes you can cover with concrete if it is a natural stone of clay. If it is porcelain then no you will not be able to stick the concrete to it. There is one get around. It is called Eco-Prim. It creates a bond on ceramic tile then enables you to put tile OVER tile so you should be able to skim coat ceramic tile with concrete with this product.
