This sounds like an ECU problem, the load of the brakes is not being compensated for so when the clutch and brake are applied the rev's fall and drop below what is maintainable for the engine. You should take it for a diagnostics check at a garage and see if anything pops up.

Does it matter if you have normal or anti-lockbrakes to deliberately skid a 180 in a car?

If you are planning on just using the foot brake, then yes, the idea of anti-lock brakes is to prevent a loss of traction, so standard brakes would be more desirable. a handbrake may be more effective in rotating the vehicle as it is only in control of the rear wheels. i would suggest not attempting this maneuver until you have a sufficient grasp of how a motor vehicle works and the physics behind the maneuver. for example, if you go fast in a straight line, then turn the wheel and slam on the brakes at the same time, you will flip your car and die. but that is probably what you planned on doing.
