While it's possible to cover asbestos tile with carpet, it's not recommended. Encapsulating tile beneath carpet doesn't eliminate the health risks. Over time, the asbestos tiles could degrade, releasing fibers into the air and potentially contaminating the carpet. Disturbance during carpet installation or removal might also release fibers.

Knob and tube wiring is an older type of electrical wiring that's no longer used and generally not considered safe.

Knob and tube wiring may contain asbestos insulation, but the only way to know is to have the material professionally tested.
