Yes. Remember that rectangles and squares are both parallelograms. Square tiles are the most common. The next most common are rectangles. Both shapes can tessellate finite planes.
Other parallelograms can tessellate infinite planes (or finite ones if you allow parts of the parallelogram along the edge of the plane.)

They can tesselate - provided they are the correct shapes.
Does a dodecahedron tesselate?
No
Can a pentagonal prism tesselate?
Yes. Can it tesselate R^3? Only if its base pentagon is non-regular.
What shape is a polygon but does not tessellate?
there are loads. ones that do tesselate are hexagons, squares and triangles but none of the others tesselate

Does a rectangle tesselate?
Yes, rectangles tesselate. A tessellation is a tiling pattern.
Why does a triangle always tesselate?
If you take two triangles, turn one over and bring them together, they will form a parallelogram. Lots of parallelograms can be lined up to form a strip of uniform width. Lots of parallel strips will fill an area. Tessellation!
Do oxagons tesselate?

Can a heptagon tesselate?
No.
Can a nonagon tesselate?
No.
Will a pentagon tesselate?
pentagons do not tesselate because their sides are uneven. hoped i helped!! :D 2010

For a shape to tesselate the interior angles have to add up to a multiple of 360 deg
