The way I interpret the ending is that no, Sid is not literally alive in a cartoon. He created an animation of him walking endlessly and occassionally turning and saying hello, and repeated it forever so that he could 'live' forever in the world that he immersed himself in his whole life, even after his death. When the author unplugs the set that is him putting Sid out of his misery.
