If it is a small hole & not on a stress point, you may be able to plug & patch.
1/ pull a plug through from the inside out, using glue
2/ grind the plug flat on the inside/ rough the area
3/put glue on & let dry
4/ install a patch over the pluged area.
this may help, on a larger tire you can section a area in the side wall but I don't think it would hold on a small soft sided sidewall.
