definetly. He really made it sound like he knew how to do it...then he says the "we can find out together". I'd have been like 'hold up, you DON'T know how to do this? And I turned to the dark side for something I possibly could have figured out on my own?'
if I'm not mistaken, Palpatine KNEW how to do it (since Plageis taught him everything) but was never actually able to ACHIVE it. That's why he needed Anakin, because he was more powerful.
Well perhaps Plagius knew all of these powers, but Sidious didn't. The goal of the Sith is to exact revenge against the Jedi for the decimation of the Sith ranks. If Sidious had knew of all this power, why waste his time trying to train Anakin. So Sidious did not know of this power. Plagius did because if he didn't there would be no reason for Lucas throw that in there. It would onyl confuse everybody. My belief is that Sidious was hoping Anakin to figure this power out on his own and then once Anakin took care of everybody and everything and was in 100% control of the galaxy, then Sidious was to kill him and assume his position. But this never happened because Vader killed Sidious before Vader learned this power.
Also, because in the official star wars visual dictionary, it says this "Sidious was happy to know that Anakin's rage remained intact, but he soon realized that Anakin was not the perfect tool to exact revenge upon the Jedi."
Sidious just wanted to Anakin to exact revenge becaus ehe couldn't and there was no one to teach him to so he saw that Anakin had a habit of excelling and learning things of his own, waited until Anakin's stress became overwhelming and took advantage of that. Some other people on the forum say that Sidious was nto capable of plotting such a story; but isn't every single "important role-playing" even in I, II and III plotted by Darth Sidious.

but if he did shouldnt he know how to keep someone alive? Yet he says he and vader can learn it together.
When anakin is just a pile of Ash, you see Palpy come to him, duck and put a hand on top of his face. I think at this moment there, he was stopping anikin from dying.
