What kind of definition are you trying to override? For what TeX calls macros and LaTeX calls commands, the TeX \def or \let will override and existing definition while in LaTeX you have to use \renewcommand rather than \newcommand. For LaTeX environments, you use \renewenvironment. Do bear in that both TeX and LaTeX are block-structured, but LaTeX has something called \gdef which lets you make top-level definitions from within a block.
