Theoretically...

I sent all my N btc to a friend.

"Imagination, and here a double spending comes"

It turns out that 2*N btc has been sent.

Is it possible to have below zero balance on my btc balance becouse of double spending?

just read the whitepaper of Satoshi and you will see for yourself that there is no way to make double spendings Wink

Hi, no bitcoin will never double costs - even if you mistakenly clicked several times to send a transaction.
Just wait until tomorrow plz.

As 3acaga said, just wait. Read this thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1802177.0

you said "Theoretically...", so you haven't actually done this yet?
if you managed to broadcast 2*N BTC with the same utxo used, you didn't actually send 2*N BTC out of your wallet
if those 2 txs has different txid, you were simply doing a double spend attempt and only one will be confirmed
"a below zero balance" is only temporary, it will get corrected after your wallet is synchronized correctly

I assumed that someone had more than 50% hashrate in order to make it possible. Anyway thanks a lot!
