Overlapping Minipages
Is it possible to overlap minipages with two sets of equations?

Yes, that's possible, for example with commands like \makebox, \rlap or \llap. The last two create a box with zero width. With \makebox, a specified width which is less than re real width would cause overlapping.

Re: Overlapping Minipages
can it be used in math mode? or can I put stuff in math environments using either \makebox or \llap & \rlap?

For math mode, I recommend to use the mathtools package. It provides similar commands for math mode: \mathllap, \mathclap and \mathrlap.
