Yes. In fact your toothache may be coming from the tonsils, and not the tooth itself. The tonsils are there to catch foreign bacteria and viruses. They can become infected and it can travel up your neck to be felt in your mouth.
I had my tonsils out, but if I get a bad cold I will feel my teeth ache because of the infection in my sinuses travel to the tooth nerves.

Toothaches are usually infection, that's what causes the pain. So definately the lymph nod can be swollen from the tooth. The tonsil may even if the infection is bad. A dentist could give you antibiotics which should help all the above.
