Hello Raul;
You seem to be answering a different question: is there a verb an an
adverb that share the same sign? / in your examples is dyadic in both
cases.

Title says all: does APL overload operators for monadic and dyadic cases?
Yes.
For example, consider / -- in APL
+/1 2 3
works just like it does in J.
And,
1 0 1/1 2 3
works like 1 0 1#1 2 3 does in J.
However, APL did not have tacit definitions, so this syntactic quirk was
not a very big deal there.
