No, up until December 8th 1941, the US had pursued a policy of isolationism started by republican presidents e.g. Warren G Harding during the roaring 20s. Consequently they cared little for what was happening on the European scene. It was only when the US themselves were attacked on December 7th 1941 by the Japanese at Pearl Harbor did they declare war on the Japanese. Subsequently Japan's allies (Germany and Italy) declared war on the states on December 11th

Is it true that neutrality is the ability to choose sides during war?

It is not true. Neutrality, as pertains to war, means that a country is choosing not to participate in the war. They are choosing not to join any side and want to be left alone. Sometimes a neutral country does choose a side- like Italy during World War I (they had chosen not to join the Central Powers, and then were basically bribed by the Allies to join their side), or Belgium during both World Wars (both times they were invaded by Germany, despite being neutral). But when this happens, the country ceases to be neutral.
