I spoke to the one paint dealer I have confidence in and was told yes I can do exactly that i.e. put a latex (not sure about alkyd) two part epoxy coating over my concrete latex floor paint. First I sanded the surface to get a better bond and my next move is to clean the floor.
As a suggestion be sure you have a concrete paint on the floor. If not you could have other problems which I encountered originally i.e. paint not adherring to the concrete in the presence of water.

Can you use latex paint over an epoxy painted wall. and what steps are needed?
You can definitely use latex paint over epoxy. In fact, it is recommended to use latex over epoxy by the paint manufacturers, rather than using epoxy over epoxy. The latex adheres better and if you then want to use epoxy next time you paint, you have a nice coat of latex between the layers. If you use epoxy over epoxy, often the paint will just peel off in layers once some time passes (and sometimes right away).
Can you paint over epoxy paint with latex paint?

Epoxy Latex Cement Based The Best Paint for the Exterior of Your Home?
Exterior paint is subject to so many harsh conditions, including pollution, weather and the expansion and contraction of the building, that it should be the best the homeowner can afford. Epoxy paint has great holding power, but it's too expensive to paint the entire exterior of a house. A cement based paint will do the job, but it comes in powder form and has to be mixed with water. It can only be used on unpainted masonry, which has to be hosed down before the paint is applied. Latex paints are very good in tolerating the alkali that comes from brick or masonry, and it's less expensive than epoxy. The best way to apply paint to an exterior is with a good, sturdy set of paintbrushes. Rollers and spray guns simply won't do the job as well.
