no,
No, because the moon orbits the Earth. If you are in Egypt and it is nighttime, the moon would likely be visible somewhere in the sky above you, not on the other side of the Earth.
Yes, the other side of the moon is not always dark. It experiences day and night just like the side of the moon facing Earth. The term "dark side of the moon" refers to the side that is not visible from Earth, not to the side that is always in darkness.
The near side of the moon always faces Earth due to synchronous rotation, where the moon completes one rotation on its axis in the same amount of time it takes to orbit Earth. This leaves the far side always hidden from view. The gravitational forces exerted by Earth create this tidal locking effect.
From Earth, you can only see ONE side of the moon. And that is the same side that has been facing us for as long as I can remember. The moon does not rotate its face. I'm afraid you can't ever see the dark side of moon from Earth :(
The side that's visible.
The crust of the Moon is thinner on the side facing the Earth because the Moon is tidally locked with the Earth. This means that the Moon rotates at exactly the same rate it revolves around the Earth, so only one side of the Moon ever faces the Earth. Since the gravity of Earth acts on the Moon, the crust has been pulled slightly towards Earth on the side of the Moon facing Earth. Because of this, the crust of the Moon is thinner on one side than the other.

Observers on Earth only ever see the same side of the moon because the moon's rotation period is the same as its orbital period around Earth, causing one side to always face towards us.

Certainly not in our lifetime.

the moon moves around us and on one side of earth it is Summer and on the other side of earth it is winter

Yes you do, when the unlighted side of the moon faces you, the fully lit up side is facing the other direction, away from Earth.
The Moon is "tidally locked" to the Earth, so it spins at the same speed as it orbits the Earth - once per 27 days. So we always see the same side of the Moon - the "near side".
The Moon orbits the Earth, while the Earth is orbiting the Sun. Because the Moon is moving, we see it in different positions relative to the Sun; we call this the "phases of the Moon". Only when the Moon is on the opposite side of the Earth from the Sun will we see a "full" moon.
