You can use any image that you want for the New Tab background image, but the task to do that is quite complicated for users who aren't able to use CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) along with 'userChrome.css .

The mention of "themes" is IMO wrong for what you asked about doing; those affect a different area, the User Interface and not the Content portion of the browser window.

Far easier to use a "New Tab" add-on.
