Default Is it possible to water new grass seeds (in shade) too much?

Depends on where you live & what grasses grow best in your area.

In areas where cool season grasses grow, shade mix is usually a
variety of grasses, with various types of fescues adapted to shade
being common, plus sometimes rye grass, or some small percent of
bluegrass. Best thing to do is buy a mix, because different
varities will do better in different soils, conditions, etc. Having
a mix makes it more likely some will do well.
