Is it possible for correcting an overbite to help enamel erosion?

It should: Correcting malpositioned teeth puts them in a more harmonious relationship, which absolutely decreases wear and tear.

Anterior guidance: Properly positioned anterior teeth act to guide your back teeth apart during function, protecting the back teeth from excessive wear. If your teeth don't fit right, they don't work right, and they don't look right. Best solution, see a fully qualified Orthodontic Specialist to have your teeth properly positioned. Any other solution is a compromise.
