Its not impossible , just hard work. You will be able to hire a machine to help if required.....but what a strange time for this question on Christmas day !

Re: Cork underlay
I once read Elvis was still alive on the internet but that didn't mean it was true.
Cork is just too soft and unsuitable to tile on and if you do it will almost certainly fail to some degree. I would look into methods/tools of lifting it and be prepared for some hard work. Once you get your head down and into it it's amazing how quickly the job gets done.

Re: Cork underlay
posssible but hard work as mentioned above, try use scraper and hammer
to take larger pieces at the beggining, and then go for wire cup attached to
angle grinder for the wee remainings..
btw merry christmas
