Such a person is going to have a hard time regardless. I think it's much better to become proficient in a single (Turing-complete) language first.
The Web is a total mess -- a typical web application requires you to know, at a minimum, HTML, CSS, JS, your server-side language of choice, regular expressions, and SQL.

Django on the other hand is for more experienced web developers that want to do things correctly. And it adds another layer of complexity on to the list of technologies you mentioned.
