Can flat paint be painted over latex satin wall paint?
Yes, you can generally paint high gloss latex over flat latex paint. But you must do all the preparation work in the best tradition of any professional painter. All "flaking" must be removed and the raw wood primed. This will present a "smooth" surface for the new coating. Additionally, everything that is to be painted my be scrupulously clean and free of anything that will restrict the new latex from sticking to the old.

What to put over a latex paint so it wont scratch?
The only way to prevent scratches and skuffs on a latex surface is to be carefull what you set on it or put against it. Consider using a lower gloss paint rather than a high gloss as marks on high gloss stand out more. If you want to prevent scratches on a horizontal surface, place glass or a sheet of plastic over it. However, you'll need small pads on the corners so that the air can circulate between the table and the glass. Otherwise, the paint may stick.

I wouldn't recommend it. Some of the chemicals in the alkyd will dissolve the latex and the alkyd won't "stick". It's best to remove the latex using laquer thinner or xylene first.

Yes, but you should clean and lightly sand the gloss paint first, to give the new paint a good 'key' surface. Cleaning can be done with a degreasing agent such as 'sugar soap', following the instructions thoroughly before applying the new paint.
Can you use gloss latex over oil base paint?
I'm not an expert, but if you paint the gloss paint with flat paint or primer and then rough the paint or scratch grooves in the paint your plaster should stick. Your grooves might need to be fairly deep. Not so deep as to go through the original plaster or drywall (depending on the original surface), but as deep as you can go. A cross-hatching pattern would probably be best. You may have to sand the paint off. I have gotten lucky in the past and have not had to.
