Currently, Django won't overwrite uploaded files, it'll append a "_" to the filename until it's unique. Django does let you organise files by strftime formatting - http://www.djangoproject.com/documentation/model-api/#filefield - it might be worth checking djangosnippets.org or searching in the bug tracker to see if someone's already proposed a solution to organising uploads by things other than date/time.
