That would depend on the weight of the aircraft. For an aircraft to be “overloaded” it means that MTOW has been exceeded.
There are a lot of seats in a 14 seat 208 and they weigh a lot, so so with seats removed and a low amount of fuel, the world is your oyster for cramming in pax, subject to regulatory limitations on the number of passengers.
