Answers:

In any application, there can be only one main function. In c++, main is not a member of any class. There is no chance of overriding



Yes it can possible, behalf of my knowledge we can do it in C language. We can start the program with our own function and end with the same. But the main constraint is we must implement (even null) the main function. because the C compiler should not allow you without main function. This can be happend with #pragma start (function name) directive.
I have tried in C and it may possible in C++.

No, it is not possible any language because execution start with Main,and there no use even though if overloaded methods are present.
