Not likely. It is, after all, the very minimum. But they may get early release with good behavior.

Doe a mandatory ever get reduced to no jail time?

Technically speaking, a person convicted of a crime for which a mandatory minimum sentence is handed down will serve that minimum sentence or higher, depending on several factors. But oftentimes a Defendant will plea guilty to a lesser offense where he may get less than the mandatory minimum, if any, jail time. Beleive it or not, plea offers are presented by the Government, and can often be negotiated by the defense. It is up to the Defendant whether to accept the offer.
