Can having too much antifreeze in your car cause it to overheat?
No, if anything it would get cooler from having too much. -You have a different problem, possibly a coolant leak.

I'm having to guess it's the low coolant light? Possible coolant switch in the overflow bottle is dirty or defective., Is it low on coolant? Possible wiring issue to sensor.

Having a leak in a radiator hose will have no effect on the engine running or not. However, in time the hose leak will cause the level of the coolant in the radiator to drop below a critical level and the engine will overheat.

You just noticed you have a big puddle of anitfreeze under my car someone looked at it and said its my water pump does that mean you shouldn't drive it?
You can drive it a little but make sure there is plenty of coolant. Don't let it overheat, not even a little. If it's leaking too fast, you might end up having trouble if you drive it, but you should be able to put in some coolant and drive it to a shop.

Will engine overheat if it only has water in it no antifreeze?
Not the day you change over to water, in fact it should cool slightly better.BUTNot having the corrosion protection included in Antifreeze will cause the system to be damaged and overheat very soon.
