Yes, the Lincoln Tunnel is almost always congested, but it still moves several tens of thousands of vehicles a day. Typical delays during the worst of the morning rush hour are 30 minutes - that means, taking the tunnel adds about 30 minutes to a normal trip (which might take 10-15 minutes). I've seen delays of an hour, but that is really rare. So, budget 45 minutes to get to and through the tunnel and you'll be fine.
Or take the ferry.
