Just started to remove the nasty 1960s vinyl floor tiles and the layer
of nasty 80s vinyl floor tiles which is on top of it.... I'm using a
heat gun to soften up the glue a bit but its seriously hard going. 4
tiles in about 30 minutes.

Can I just sod it cover it all in a bit of PVA solution and slap my
ceramic tiles over the top or am I asking for trouble?

Don't do it. Remove the vinyl tiles with one of those big heavy duty
floor scrapers they sell in e.g. Topps Tiles.
Still bloody hard work though.
