Is it possible to insert a tile inlay into an existing hardwood floor?

Question: I saw on this website that it was possible to insert a tile inlay into a newly constructed hardwood floor. http://www.diynetwork.com/diy/shows_wkr/episode/0,2046,DIY_14349_27253,00.html But is it possible to use an existing hardwood floor to place a tile inlay instead of creating an entire new floor? My hardwood floors are in excellent shape i would just like to spruce them up a bit. I thought i might just be able to cut the floor where i wanted the inlay but wasn't sure?

Answer: Well if you cut the space out of your hardwood, you'll need to use some type of sub floor unless you want the tile to be sunken a bit compared to the rest of the floor. Typically wood floor is thicker than tile. It is doable though yes.
