If I mess with my truss rod will it eliminate a little fret buzz?

depends on whether the fretbuzz is from uneven relief on your neck or something else. before you did anything i would suggest you establish the cause of the problem - make sure all the frets are level, determine the state of neck relief, etc.

blindly adjusting your truss is a good way to wreck your gear.
