Side loading wouldn’t help you with that. What you’re describing is the activation lock, there as a theft deterrent. It happens before any point you’d be able to side load. After that point, you can setup the phone completely offline.

It continues to contact apple and others unless you turn off wifi, bluetooth and cellular data. It might contact apple through NFC/find my as well (I'm uncertain with default settings) (wifi will auto-connect to some APs depending on carrier settings. bluetooth does all kinds of stuff including ibeacon.)
