I know it normally means "yes" but i think it also means "if". I'm not completely sure.

Yes.
si = if sí = yes
Notice the accent on the second one. Even though they sound the same when spoken, the accent helps make the "yes" version more obvious in print.

HI arun, actually, we use an accent to distinguish the words.
sí= yes si = if
