If you tile onto the paint then the grip of the tiles is only as good as the adhesion of the paint to the plaster....

I would be inclined to go over the paint with some sandpaper first to give a good key..
But 'going over the paint with some sandpaper first' will only improve the key between paint and tile advehsive. (It won't improve the adhesion of the paint to the plaster).....
