will it?

Yes and no. Doing a second pass after a constant quantizer encode will pretty much not add anything, because it won't have a a proper first pass. However, a 2pass encode to the same filesize will look better, because 2pass is simply a better algorithm. You should never really use constant quant, because constant quality mode is better.
Nevertheless, 32 quantizer is always going to be bad. You should experiment with values between 18 and 26.
