Is there any way to get my old MS Sidewinder joystick (not force feedback) working on x-plane on my imac G5?

If you are asking about a 3rd party driver solution then you may want to try USBoverdrive. I've had success using it with logitech joysticks in the past, but I never tried it with any other brand stick. You can create profiles and in demo mode you have access to all features, so you can try it before buying it. Its shareware.
