Not as much as a lot of people like to think, to be honest.
It might help a little bit in that you don't hear the ringing for quite as long, but the ringing is still there . . . just quieter in *exact* proportion to the amount you've reduced the amplitude of the direct sound (this is one of the many reasons why some people incorrectly believe that EQ can fix modal ringing).
Mixing at a lower volume also doesn't do anything at all to fix modal nulls.
Further, while there are many entry level monitors that do a pretty decent job at more standard mixing levels, you lose a lot of detail and accuracy when you monitor to lower volume levels with most of these entry level monitors.
