Yes you can, however, ensure that this is the best option before executing. I do this to reinforce the self-stick vinyl tile and laminate flooring in my basement and it works great. I got tired of dropping a knife or something creating a huge gash requiring replacement. The polyurethane layer has protected my floors for years. Occasional reapplication of polyurethane in spots where needed making it look new brand new again versus cutting out and re-sticking a piece of the laminate floor that will never look as good as new...I use the former. There are a lot of nay-sayers out there about polyurethane on vinyl tiles and laminate floors, but I've always had great success.

Is luxury vinyl tile better in a kitchen than laminate?

I think that luxury vinyl tile or plank is a great option for a kitchen. First, it is waterproof (laminate is not and with water it can be permanently damaged. Second, luxury vinyl is usually glued down to the floor, so it is more secure and feels/sounds more real vs. a laminate floor which is floating and sounds tinny/hollow underneath. Third, if you floor is uneven/not level, the luxury vinyl will work better as it is a flexible material and can tolerate indiscrepancies; a laminate floor will move a lot of if the floor is uneven (and could even buckle and break if it's too uneven. Please note that you will still need to make sure you floor is smoothed out before putting luxury vinyl on top, as the the vinyl will telegraph the shape of what is underneath it.
