When you have a wide split out off end and a wide receiver slot than another end on the same side next to the tackle Is the end next to the tackle an elegible receiver?
As far as the NFL is concerned, if both wide receivers are on the same side of the field and on the line of scrimmage, the formation is illegal. There must be 7 players on the line of scrimmage and 3 players on each side of the center. It sounds like your question is describing a situation where there are 4 players on the line of scrimmage on one side of the center and 2 players on the line of scrimmage on the other side of the center. If this is the case, the formation would be deemed illegal and result in a five yard penalty being called against the offense. It is illegal to have a receiver 'covered' by another receiver on the line of scrimmage.

Can you have 9 guys to the right side of the line of scrimmage?
There is no "right" side of the line of scrimmage. The line of scrimmage runs across the field from sideline to sideline. All eleven players from the offensive team begin the play on one side, and all eleven players from the defensive team begin on the other side. Either side may appear to be the "right" side, depending upon which goal the team is defending and/or which side of the field the spectators are seated. If, however, you intended to ask if 9 players from one team can line up to the right side of the BALL, the answer is yes, though you would still need seven offensive linemen, and you would not have an eligible receiver nor any protection on the left side. Such an alignment might be interesting, but would be essentially useless.
What is the six letter word for an official who assists the referee?

If a quarterback throws the football behind the line of scrimmage and the receiver does not catch it is it a fumble?
That depends on the angle the ball travelled. If the receiver is behind or exactly to the side of the quarterback and the ball travels at an angle parallel to or away from the line of scrimmage, the throw is considered a lateral and would be a fumble if the receiver did not catch it. If the receiver is in front of the quarterback and the ball travels at an angle towards the line of scrimmage, the throw is considered a forward pass and would be an incomplete pass.

Can a quarterback go for a pass after handing the ball off to a running back or wide receiver?
If a quarterback and the entire ball are in front of the line of scrimmage then a forward pass can no longer be thrown but a lateral is still a legal play. However, by the act of crossing the line of scrimmage, the quarterback does not lose the right to throw a forward pass as long as after crossing the line scrimmage, the ball returns behind and is thrown from behind the line scrimmage.
