No, "side speak" is not a grammatically correct phrase and is not commonly used in written English. It is possible that you are thinking of the phrase "asides peek," which refers to a character in a play briefly speaking to the audience without other characters on stage being aware. In this case, it is acceptable to use the phrase in written English to describe this theatrical technique. For example: "In Shakespeare's play, the character Hamlet often uses asides to peek at the audience and share his inner thoughts and feelings."
