What sort of "tile" is this? Is it vinyl or ceramic? If it's vinyl, I don't know whether or not epoxy would stick--though I suspect it would--but I do know that thin set or other cement-based mortar would not be a good choice.
If you do use epoxy and there are voids between the tile and the floor substrate, add some thickener to the epoxy like microbaloons or silica or possibly even sawdust.
