Hi Chezki,
You are allowed to hit it with the side of your racket but it will not be very consistent or accurate. You are much better spending the time training your normal shots using the rubber.

Doubles Serving Rules
In this video we go over the somewhat complicated rules of serving for doubles in table tennis. There are a couple of extra rules for doubles that you don't apply to singles. In doubles you always serve from the right hand box diagonally to your opponent's right hand box. Each player has 2 serves each. If you've just been receiving then it's your turn to serve next.
