If you can see the moon during the day does that mean that somewhere on the other side of the Earth it is pitch black?
Every moment of every day, there is a sunlit part of the earth, and a night time part of the earth. This has nothing to do with the location of the moon. However this does mean that the moon is not always in the sky every minute that it is night time. The moon rises and sets, just as the sun and stars do. A moonless night is not necessarily pitch black.
