question
grammar word-choice usage
Does it make sense to say 寝行きます?
「寝行{ねい}く」 makes no sense.

「寝{ね}に行{い}く」, however, makes perfect sense and it means "to go to bed".

answer
As others told you 寝に行きます is the correct structure (the normal masu for the
verb, without “masu”, plus に and any verb of motion like 行く 来る 帰る 戻る etc) It’s
commonly used in Japan, I’ve listened to it and I use it commonly.
