Something to allow an air break under the mattress is a good idea but it does not allow air flow. There is no reason for the air to move so in the middle of the mattress the air does not circulate no matter what you have the mattress sitting on. It will add an air break to the mattress not touching the camper but that is all.
More importantly you should leave your heavy sheet (s) / blankets rolled back on the bed in the morning and open a window or a vent to change the air in the cab over. Especially the air in the corners of the cab over as it is stale and moist and this is more likely to cause issues with the mattress touching the walls and getting mold than anything. A small 12v fan running during the day blowing air that way will help as well.
