A teenage male gets a large number of erections each day simply do to hormones produced by puberty. It has almost nothing to do with what is going on around him, although he still can be aroused by sexual interest. Which just adds to his embarrassment and confusion for at this point in his sexual development he can never be sure, by what you described, if this is why he became aroused.
Since he did get a noticeable erection in your presence he may be too embarrassed to ask you out. If you like him you might ask him out. This will let him know you were not offended by his erection. [ adviceman49's advice column | Ask adviceman49 A Question ]

It's possible just the physical act of tickling led to the erection. It doesn't necessarily have to be about liking you. You can't figure out if he likes you based on this.
Hon, if you really do like him and you're growing close and realize it's mutual why not ask him if he would like to try going to a movie or something together and see if there's something to build on there.
If you're already hugging, tickling, cuddling it's a very good sign he's in to you. Now, I don't know how bold you are but there's nothing against you leaning in for a kiss if that feels right for you as that right there is fine considering you both are a bit physical already and would spell it out for him.
But.. If it's easier for you just say "Hey would you like to go to a movie, a party, concert, bowling whatever sometime with me?" It would be a chance to hang-out alone and see if you have any chemistry. Let me know how it turns out but you have a good foundation to start from and strong indication he feels the same.

Guys get boners when they are aroused. They can get boners at the doctor's office, but it doesn't mean that they like their doctors.

Controlling erections is very hard in teens (which I am guessing he is) and even relatively light contact etc can provoke one. Certainly, hugging and tickling with a girl would be enough reason for most boys of that age.
