question, if I move the cup for the hinge an additional 1/2" (or
possibly more due to mounting location on the cabinet) from the edge of
the door to get the 1" overlay will the hinge continue to operate as
designed?

Off the cuff, and IME, you could be asking for trouble/extra work.

Depending upon the hinge type, the distance from the edge of the door to
the cup hole (usually distance "B") is a critical distance for most euro
type hinges. By moving this distance you may find unintended
consequences with clearance issues, including not having enough
clearance to mount lazy susan hardware or shelf slides.

Not saying that it won't work, just that you should probably dummy up
some doors and give it a try before drilling your cup holes in finished
doors.

One of the biggest mistake you can make when building cabinets is to not
decide upon your door hinges and drawer hardware FIRST. Failure to do so
will ALWAYS cause problems, even for the experienced cabinet maker. DAMHIKT!
