Unless there's a back bass-reflex port, I see no reason why the speakers couldn't be with their backs to the wall.
It will boost low-end a bit, but that might just be what you want. It might also create some reflections, especially like they are now, with some toe-in.
Personally, I'd try them flat to the wall first. That gives the least reflections from the back wall and if the speakers are a little bit omnidirectional, as they should be, it won't hurt the frequency spectrum. Unfortunately, some "near-field" speakers, pretending to be monitors, are rather directional.
Slide them around and listen. Stands won't do much, if anything.
In real studio's, monitors are often in the wall...
