The collections themselves will show up in the cloud view ("All" or whatever it's called now), but the books obviously won't show up, so the collections might well appear empty until you switch to Downloaded.
This is a bit annoying if you have a lot of sideloaded books: it means pointless messing about on the Kindle to replicate a collections structure you already have on another device. Ah well, at least you only have to do it once.

It depends on what you mean by "sideloaded" If you are adding the books over USB, then yes...you have to add the books to the collections manually on each separate device. If you are adding the books by emailing them to the Kindle cloud, or by using the Send to Kindle app, then once they are added to a collection on one device, then they are also shown in the collection on all other devices.
