In spatialite.h you can find this function:

SPATIALITE_DECLARE int dump_shapefile (sqlite3 * sqlite, char *table,
                   char *column, char *shp_path,
                   char *charset, char *geom_type,
                   int verbose, int *rows,
                   char *err_msg);

which is exactly what you are looking for.

However, you have to find an Android wrapper that supports that function (it may not be available). Another method is using GDAL for Android with spatialite driver to convert data to Shapefile: see how they did it in this utility included in geotools-android.
