No, it is not possible to overwrite a Python built-in function within an entire Python package. Built-in functions are part of the core Python language and cannot be modified or replaced by any module or package. However, it is possible to define functions with the same name as the built-in functions within a module or package, but this is not recommended as it can lead to confusion and unexpected behavior in your code.
