No, it is not safe or recommended to fix a flat tire with a screw in the sidewall. Sidewall damage compromises the structural integrity of the tire, and the tire should be replaced. Driving on a repaired sidewall can be dangerous and increase the risk of a blowout.

Should I take the nail out before you use fix a flat?

Yes, remove the nail. Fix-a-flat may work for a temporary fix but get a proper plug patch installed at your earliest opportunity. Take a crayon and draw an arrow on the sidewall showing where the nail was and you will be able to tell the guy at the tire repair where to look. The fix-a-flat also works better if the hole is on the bottom when you squirt it in.
