replacing wood floor over radiant

Hello.
I am attempting to have new floating hardwood/laminate wooden floors (as well as carpet in other rooms) installed over an old radiant heated concrete slab. Currently, there are thin wooden parquet tiles on the floor, and I'd like to replace them with the floating floor/carpet. Since it's cheaper to just place the floating floor ON TOP of the wooden tiles, can this be done without compromising the heat coming out of the slab?
Thanks in advance for any advice.
