You would not "marginally improve", you would dramatically improve. That's the dirty secret of these interviews they are not that hard to get good at. There are at most a little over half a dozen data structures and about a dozen algorithmic technique patterns that show up in these interviews, once you do enough of those types of problem, you get better at it.
I am willing to bet that spending an hour every day on leetcode you can probably be good enough to pass interviews at most companies in a month or two (assuming you had exposure to DS and Algorithms in college, if not add more time but the general idea applies). Maybe not Google but I would bet you'd be good enough to see double digit increasing in your onsite -> offer conversion percentage. Whether that would be worth it is a different question, the answer for many people who already have good jobs is no.
