You could yes

1. Fix battens to the floor to accept solid floor boards
2. Float a glued together solid floor
3. Float a clip together solid floor

all of the above would involve an increase in the floor height which will have implications for your doors, thresholds, skirting.

4. Float a laminate wood floor

PS your tiles would have to reasonably level (no edges sticking up) for anything but no 1.

You can rent out a prof tool from rent a tool shops that will lift almost any tile, it will have a flattened head to lift the tile and adhesive off the floor. Then retile.
