Yes, but it can be difficult. Do you plan on leaving the raw concrete exposed? If so, it probably will not turn out as well as you would like.





You would probably need a disc grinder to remove remaining grout, and it will probably take a long time. If you are putting in new tile, then you don't need to take off everything and you should be fine.
