Probably; yes. I would have to think any non-treated room can be improved with treatments.
My room had no ’slap echo’ either, but in reality, it was a bit ’dead’, lifeless, and also built-up too much localized bass pressure. I didn’t think I needed any for the same reason until I tried experimenting.
In my case, I did find strategic dampening helped, but got my most positive results with diffusion, which helped break-up the sound and provide better imaging and soundstage. Your room may be different.
Suggestions? Experiment inexpensivly (foam or dense insulated sheets/panels) before spending more on specifically made acoustical treatments. Or, take what you used for experimentation and ’dress them up’. Though, this is easier to do with absorption than diffusion.
