Rick, There is not a dark side of the moon.... it is misnomer. It should be called the non visible (from earth) side of the moon. The sun shines on that side as it shines on any other part of the moon. In fact it is the only lighted side when the moon is between the sun and the earth for example.
Aside this, not sure what you are referring to with mirror matter (I will look it up) but if there was something that was very cold had only weak EM interactions with matter it would not be a good heat sink, because in the end heat is transmitted by collisions between particles that are possible only because particles have EM fields to interact with each other. So no much heat could be transmitted to something that has a weak EM interaction with matter.
