No, timeslot API is not supported for SDK 5.2.0, as SDK 5.2.0 is compatible with S110 6.x.x softdevice. Timeslot API was first introduced in S110 7.x.x, see the nRF51 compatibility matrix. First SDK to support S110 7.x.x is SDK 6.x.0

I think there are two ways of having your operation not interrupted by the softdevice.

Use the radio notifications, which will give the application an event some predefined time before a BLE connection event/advertising event.
Use Timeslot API where you can execute code with highest priority in timeslots between BLE connection events/advertising events. The Timeslot API is described in the S110 SDS.

I include two examples, one for radio notifications, example is developed for nRF51 SDK 6.1.0, the other one for Timeslot API, example is developed for nRF51 SDK 6.0.0
