It is not advised due to inherent variations in size and curvature of the tile. All floors endure movement and without spacers the tile will absorb all of the lateral movement resulting in broken tiles.

To add to other response.. Grout also makes the tiled area "water resistant" A must in a wet enviorment GW.
