You can easily overlap text using nothing more than well-structured HTML and CSS. Read up on CSS properties such as line-height, using negative margins, using negative letter-spacing, etc.
Good example of negative spacing to tighten up the headline font: http://www.uxmag.com/technology/314/the-dark-google-myth
A good place to start is the W3C
http://www.w3.org/Style/CSS/
but this is also a really good read on typography:

You can overlap fonts by using html for the 1st layer of fonts, then use cascaded style sheet (css) to specify the exact position to place another layer of fonts. I think this involves setting the attribute, "position".
You can check the syntax at www.w3schools.com

Why would you want to do that? Hmmm. Maybe you want to put a shadow font behind the main one? Hmm, maybe! I just wish you told us that. It's very difficult with HTML, but I can give you a free web design program that will do it. Contact me via my profile if you want it.

You mean, for example, mix fonts in a paragraph? Example, with spaces added in htm tags for Yahoo! Answers purposes:
