You can't side load on a nook. But because it runs RMSDK, you may be able to stick some fonts in a fonts directory and call on the fonts from the CSS. I can do this on a Sony Reader using RMSDK.

This is how you do it on a Kobo with RMSDK.
Code:
@font-face {
  font-family: monospace;
  font-weight: normal;
  font-style: normal;
  src: url("res:///fonts/normal/Dark Courier");
}
@font-face {
  font-family: monospace;
  font-weight: bold;
  font-style: normal;
  src: url("res:///fonts/bold/Dark Courier");
}
@font-face {
  font-family: monospace;
  font-weight: normal;
  font-style: italic;
  src: url("res:///fonts/italic/Dark Courier");
}
@font-face {
  font-family: monospace;
  font-weight: bold;
  font-style: italic;
  src: url("res:///fonts/bolditalic/Dark Courier");
}
The only thing is that on a nook, there no ability to add weight to the fonts. So you'd need to add weight in a font editor.
