Cellulitis, as you know is a skin infection caused by bacteria. Cellulitis is treatable; the fact that you have had it twice implies exactly that. While a tattoo is a great thing to have on your body, for a variety of reasons, you need to first find out how susceptible your skin is to infection and allergic reactions. Since you say you have had cellulitis twice, I am assuming that your skin must not exactly be too immune to infections and allergen-induced reactions.
A tattoo involves an intrusive technique on the skin, and therefore, the skin is likely to react to any such things as pin pricks. Whether tattooing on your skin would result in another bout of cellulitis would depend on a few things. To analyse this, you need to consult a doctor as well as a tattoo artist who is recognized as someone who knows the intricacies of his trade. Besides, you need to know how strong your previous bouts of cellulitis were. Even if they were mild, and the doctor declared that there could be possibilities of it recurring post tattooing, you need to consider whether you still want the tattoo. While cellulitis is not fatal, it is painful as you know, and if not treated on time could cause big-time damage to the skin.
