No, this won't work. A double faced card can only have the characteristics of the back face either when it's on the battlefield after being transformed or if it's a modal DFC (Tergrid, God of Fright Flip, etc.) that's been cast with the back face. In any other situation it only has the characteristics of the front face. In your example that means Altar of the Wretched Flip isn't a creature card in your library and Buried Alive can't find it.
