Not with UCI. This is what happens:
SideToMove is mine. I make my move (MOVE_A) after a search.
I set SideToMove to yours. I make pm (MOVE_B).
I set SideToMove to mine. I now post MOVE_B and go searching for a reply to
MOVE_B.
If ponderhit arrives, I keep searching, because your move is already made and
SideToMove is already mine.

If not ponderhit, I then and only then do I have to unmake MOVE_B.
