Unfortunately compactflash cards are solid state memory and doing so would make electrons spin backwards, hence making them into positrons. While the "fireworks" would be interesting, the high energy photons being emitted would be very unhealthy for both the card and you.
Clearly this also means that the manufacturer has not tested the other side of compact flash cards.

I was always amazed that those electrons didn't all get pulled down by gravity and pool at the bottom of the CF when in the card, thus making the top half unusable. :)
