I became impatient and applied latex paint to a cabinet door way too thickly. I dumped about four ounces on the door with the door laying flat and then just spread it around with a brush. Will the latex dry thoroughly but just take longer or did I mess this up?

Yes it will dry and it will "dry" in a couple days with right temp and air flow controls.
However with the amount that you put on there it could be a long time before the paint actually cures and it may never cure to the point of a good paint job. Depending on a lot of variables even after it cures the inner paint may become rubbery or even worse it could become chalky and never bind right.
