Vinyl flooring seam sealer is not meant to be used on vinyl composite tile. Neither is grout.

Pro floor covering installer here. What we would do is pull that tile and replace it with another one. You take a picture of the tile, or go back to the store in the area the tile was bought to lookup the invoice information, and get a matching tile to replace it. If that is not an option, applying low heat (say from a heat gun/hair dryer) to the surface of the tile will make it more pliable and easier to peel up.

If you can get it peeled up, and the glue is still sticky/tacky, you can simply place it back in the hole with the gap next to the wall. You can then cut a sliver off another tile using a tile cutter which are rentable at most home improvement stores, and fill the gap with that. It will be less noticeable and less likely to pop back out against the wall.

If you get the tile up but the glue is bad, you will need to apply tile adhesive and let it dry then stick the tile back in the hole.

Vinyl seam sealer is meant for sheet goods. It is liquid vinyl that is [supposed to be/usually] clear gloss or clear matte. It is like a more watery form of caulk.

There is more industrial plastic vinyl which is heat bonded to stuff like Medintech that is used in heavily cleaned environements [like hospitals] which you might come across too. It also is not meant for vinyl composite tile.
