No, the word 'overran' is not a noun; overran is a verb, the past tense of overrun, which means to spread over or occupy in large numbers; to conquer or occupy a territory by force.

The word overrun is also a noun, a word for the amount that something exceeds a limit. Examples:

Verb: This new model will overrun the competition in no time.

Noun: The cost overrun will have to be made up.
