Just put the switch before the surface input of your material, instead of the diffuse colour slot of your bsdf

Thanks for the advice, but what if I need 2 different shaders (materials) on different sides, and not just 2 different pictures, colors?
Use MtlX Mix node like blending two shaders with a mask. The mask is the ray import node with the value of ray:backbone. It should work.
