No, you don't usually call your friends "bitches" unless it is in a joking manner. As you may already know, the word "bitches" is a common curse word in English. Typically if you call someone a bitch, you are saying that she is a mean person. However, this song "bitches" does in fact mean friends. I do not recommend calling one of your friends a bitch. It is a word that should be used with caution because it could offend someone. You may not have that friend anymore if she doesn't know that you are calling her a bitch in a joking manner.
